Overview

This classification covers sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate, a specific inorganic chemical compound. It is characterized by its chemical composition and its primary industrial uses, which often involve its properties as a reducing agent. Typical applications include its use as a bleaching agent in the textile industry, as a photographic chemical, and in various chemical syntheses.

This particular HTS code, 2831.10.10.00, distinguishes sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate from other dithionites and sulfoxylates of sodium, such as those covered under the sibling category 2831.10.50.00, which are described as "Other." The distinction lies in the specific chemical structure; this code is for the compound formed with formaldehyde, whereas other sodium sulfoxylates may have different organic moieties or be unspecified within the "Other" category.

As a leaf node within the HTS system, there are no further subcategories under 2831.10.10.00. This means that any product meeting the description of sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate would be classified directly under this code, provided it aligns with the broader classification scope of dithionites and sulfoxylates of sodium within Chapter 28 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule.
