About chemical products, mixtures and preparations; containing goods specified in subheading note 3 to this chapter; containing polychlorinated biphenyls (pcbs), polychlorinated terphenyls (pcts) or polybrominated biphenyls (pbbs)

HS code 382482 covers a range of chemical products, mixtures, and preparations that contain polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated terphenyls (PCTs), or polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs). These substances are often used in industrial applications, such as coolants, lubricants, and flame retardants. The production and trade of these chemicals are closely regulated due to their potential environmental and health impacts.

Production process

The production of the chemical products covered under HS code 382482 typically involves the synthesis of the relevant compounds, such as PCBs, PCTs, or PBBs, and their subsequent incorporation into various formulations and mixtures. The specific production techniques may vary depending on the intended application and the desired properties of the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the chemical products under HS code 382482 include the raw materials necessary for the synthesis of the relevant compounds, such as chlorinated or brominated aromatic compounds. Additionally, various solvents, catalysts, and other additives may be used in the formulation and processing of these products. Specialized equipment and machinery for chemical synthesis and mixing are also essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The chemical products covered under HS code 382482 are primarily used as industrial inputs in a variety of applications, such as 854389 Electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof; having individual functions, not specified or included elsewhere in this Chapter, 854390 Parts suitable for use solely or principally with the apparatus of headings 8535, 8536 or 8537, and 854430 Ignition wiring sets and other wiring sets of a kind used in vehicles, aircraft or ships. These products may also be used in the production of 380850 (Insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides, anti-sprouting products and plant-growth regulators, disinfectants and similar products, put up in forms or packings for retail sale or as preparations or articles (for example, sulphur-treated bands, wicks and candles, and fly-papers)).

Revisions to 382482

Classification codes are adjusted frequently. The code may have been revised or replaced between system versions. The table below shows the history (newest to oldest) of the code 382482. The most recent 1 version of this code (382482) is in the HS v2022 system:
