About rubber; synthetic, halo-isobutene-isoprene rubber (ciir or biir), in primary forms or in plates, sheets or strip

HS code 400239 covers synthetic halo-isobutene-isoprene rubber, also known as CIIR or BIIR. This type of rubber is a specialized material with unique properties that make it highly valuable in a variety of industrial applications. As a synthetic rubber, it offers advantages over natural rubber in terms of performance, consistency, and cost-effectiveness. The 400239 industry plays a crucial role in supporting the manufacturing of a wide range of products across sectors such as automotive, construction, and consumer goods.

Production process

The production of 400239 (Rubber; synthetic, halo-isobutene-isoprene rubber (CIIR or BIIR), in primary forms or in plates, sheets or strip) typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, including isobutene and isoprene, are combined and polymerized to create the basic halo-isobutene-isoprene polymer. This polymer is then further processed, often through vulcanization or other techniques, to impart the desired physical and chemical properties. The resulting material is then shaped into primary forms, such as plates, sheets, or strips, ready for use in various manufacturing processes.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of 400239 (Rubber; synthetic, halo-isobutene-isoprene rubber (CIIR or BIIR), in primary forms or in plates, sheets or strip) include petrochemical feedstocks like isobutene and isoprene, as well as specialized processing equipment and machinery. Additives such as fillers, plasticizers, and curing agents may also be used to enhance the rubber's performance characteristics. The production process also requires a significant amount of energy, typically in the form of heat and electricity, to facilitate the various stages of polymerization, compounding, and shaping.

Production outputs

The primary output of the 400239 (Rubber; synthetic, halo-isobutene-isoprene rubber (CIIR or BIIR), in primary forms or in plates, sheets or strip) industry is the synthetic rubber material itself, which is then consumed by a wide range of downstream industries. This material may be further processed or incorporated into the manufacturing of various products, such as automotive components, construction materials, and industrial goods. Some of the related HS codes that may consume the output of the 400239 industry include 4011 New pneumatic tyres, of rubber, 4016 Other articles of vulcanised rubber other than hard rubber, and 3926 Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914.
