About diazo-, azo- or azoxy-compounds

HS code 2927 covers a diverse group of organic compounds known as diazo-, azo- or azoxy-compounds. These specialized chemicals play a crucial role in various industries, including textiles, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemicals. As an important segment of the broader organic chemicals sector, this industry contributes significantly to the global economy, enabling the production of a wide range of essential products.

Production process

The production of diazo-, azo- or azoxy-compounds typically involves a series of chemical reactions. The key steps often include the diazotization of primary aromatic amines, followed by coupling reactions with other aromatic compounds. These processes require precise control of temperature, pH, and reaction times to ensure the desired molecular structures and properties are achieved.

Production inputs

The main inputs for the production of HS code 2927 products include a variety of aromatic amines, nitrites, and other organic compounds. Specialized equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and filtration systems, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce with expertise in organic chemistry and process engineering.

Production outputs

The outputs of the HS code 2927 industry encompass a diverse range of dyes, pigments, and other specialty chemicals. These compounds find applications in 3204 Synthetic organic colouring matter and preparations based thereon; synthetic organic products of a kind used as fluorescent brightening agents or as luminophores, whether or not chemically defined, 3002 (Medicaments (excluding goods of heading 3002, 3005 or 3006)) and 3824 (Prepared binders for foundry moulds or cores; chemical products and preparations of the chemical or allied industries (including those consisting of mixtures of natural products), not elsewhere specified or included).
