HS v2022 Code: 382712

About mixtures containing halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane or propane, not elsewhere specified or included; containing hydrobromofluorocarbons (hbfcs)

HS code 382712 covers a range of chemical mixtures containing halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane, or propane. These mixtures, which include hydrobromofluorocarbons (HBFCs), are widely used in various industrial and commercial applications, such as refrigeration, air conditioning, and as propellants in aerosol products. The global trade in these specialized chemical mixtures is an important component of the broader 38 Chemicals and allied industries sector, which is a critical part of the world economy.

Production process

The production of the chemical mixtures covered by HS code 382712 typically involves the controlled blending and formulation of various halogenated hydrocarbon compounds. This may include processes such as distillation, mixing, and stabilization to achieve the desired composition and properties. Manufacturers must adhere to strict safety and environmental regulations throughout the production lifecycle to ensure the safe handling and responsible use of these potentially hazardous materials.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the chemical mixtures under HS code 382712 include a range of halogenated hydrocarbon compounds, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), and hydrobromofluorocarbons (HBFCs). Specialized production equipment, including blending tanks, distillation columns, and packaging machinery, are also essential inputs for this industry. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce with expertise in chemical processing and formulation.

Production outputs

The chemical mixtures covered by HS code 382712 are primarily used as refrigerants, propellants, and in other industrial applications. These mixtures may be consumed by industries such as 84 Machinery; electrical equipment; parts thereof; sound recorders and reproducers, television image and sound recorders and reproducers, and parts and accessories of such articles, 85 Electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof; sound recorders and reproducers, television image and sound recorders and reproducers, and parts and accessories of such articles, and 38 Chemicals and allied industries. The global trade in these specialized chemical products is an important component of the international 29 Organic chemicals and 38 Chemicals and allied industries supply chains.
