HS v2022 Code: 400211

About rubber; synthetic, styrene-butadiene rubber (sbr) and carboxylated styrene-butadiene rubber (xsbr) latex, in primary forms or in plates, sheets or strip

HS code 400211 covers the production and trade of synthetic styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and carboxylated styrene-butadiene rubber (XSBR) latex. These types of synthetic rubber are widely used in the manufacturing of various products, from tires and automotive parts to adhesives and sealants. As a key component in many industries, the 400211 product category plays a vital role in the global economy.

Production process

The production of SBR and XSBR latex involves the copolymerization of styrene and butadiene monomers. This process is typically carried out in an emulsion or solution polymerization system, where the monomers are combined with initiators, surfactants, and other additives to form the desired rubber latex. The resulting latex is then coagulated, dried, and processed into various primary forms, such as sheets, plates, or blocks, for further industrial use.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 400211 products include styrene and butadiene monomers, as well as various catalysts, initiators, and other chemical additives. Additionally, specialized production equipment, such as polymerization reactors, coagulation tanks, and drying systems, are essential for the manufacturing process. The availability and cost of these raw materials and machinery can significantly impact the overall production and supply of 400211 (Rubber; synthetic, styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and carboxylated styrene-butadiene rubber (XSBR) latex, in primary forms or in plates, sheets or strip).

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 400211 is synthetic SBR and XSBR latex, which is then used as a raw material in the production of a wide range of products. These include 4011 New pneumatic tyres, of rubber, 4013 Inner tubes, of rubber, 4016 Other articles of vulcanized rubber, n.e.s., and 3506 Prepared glues and other prepared adhesives, n.e.s.; products suitable for use as glues or adhesives, put up for retail sale, not exceeding a net weight of 1 kg. The versatility of these synthetic rubber products makes them essential inputs for numerous industries, contributing to the overall economic activity.
