About acids; saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acids; anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives, n.e.c. in heading no. 2915

HS code 291590 covers a diverse range of saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acids and their derivatives. These chemicals play a crucial role in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, plastics, and food processing. They are essential building blocks for the production of a wide array of consumer and industrial products, making them an integral part of the global economy.

Production process

The production of the chemicals under HS code 291590 typically involves a combination of chemical synthesis and purification processes. Manufacturers may use methods such as oxidation, esterification, and halogenation to create the desired compounds. Careful control of temperature, pressure, and reaction times is crucial to ensure the quality and purity of the final products.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 291590 chemicals include various organic feedstocks, such as 290110 Hydrocarbons; acyclic, saturated, 290120 Hydrocarbons; acyclic, unsaturated, and 290511 (Alcohols; monohydric, saturated, methanol (methyl alcohol)). Additionally, manufacturers may require specialized equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and purification systems, as well as a skilled workforce to operate the production processes.

Production outputs

The chemicals classified under HS code 291590 are used as intermediates in the production of a wide range of products. They may be further processed and incorporated into 300 Pharmaceutical products, 390 Plastics and articles thereof, 380 Chemical products n.e.c. and 382 (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).
