About plastics; plates, sheets, film, foil and strip (not self-adhesive), of phenolic resins, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials

HS code 392094 covers a range of plastic products made from phenolic resins, a type of thermosetting plastic. These materials are widely used across various industries, from construction and electronics to automotive and aerospace, due to their unique properties such as heat resistance, dimensional stability, and chemical inertness. The global phenolic resins market is expected to grow steadily in the coming years, driven by increasing demand from end-use industries and the need for advanced materials that can withstand harsh environments.

Production process

The production of phenolic resin-based plastic products typically involves a multi-step process. First, phenol and formaldehyde are combined in a controlled reaction to create the phenolic resin. This resin is then mixed with fillers, reinforcements, and other additives to impart the desired properties. The resulting compound is then shaped into the final product, often through processes like compression molding, injection molding, or extrusion, depending on the specific application.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 392094 products include phenol and formaldehyde as the primary raw materials, as well as various fillers, reinforcements, and additives such as glass fibers, mineral fillers, and flame retardants. Specialized machinery, such as mixing equipment, molding presses, and extruders, are also essential for the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The products covered under HS code 392094 are primarily used as components in a wide range of industries. These include 441600 Furniture, 853400 Electrical machinery and equipment, 870000 Vehicles, and 860000 Railway or tramway locomotives, rolling stock and parts thereof. The versatility of phenolic resin-based plastics makes them suitable for applications where high heat resistance, dimensional stability, and chemical resistance are required.

Revisions to 392094
