2909.60.50.00 - Other 🖩

This category, HTS Code 2909.60.50.00, encompasses "Other" alcohol peroxides, ether peroxides, acetal and hemiacetal peroxides, and ketone peroxides, along with their halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated, or nitrosated derivatives. These are organic compounds characterized by the presence of peroxide functional groups (-O-O-), which can contribute to their reactivity and oxidizing properties. The term "Other" signifies that this sub-classification is for peroxides that do not fit into more specific sub-classifications within heading 2909.

Within the broader scope of heading 2909, which deals with ethers and their derivatives, this particular branch focuses on peroxides. It is important to distinguish these from other ethers and their derivatives classified elsewhere within Chapter 29 that do not contain the peroxide linkage. The parent category itself, "Alcohol peroxides, ether peroxides, acetal and hemiacetal peroxides, ketone peroxides and their halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives," clearly defines the core chemical structures being considered.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification under 2909.60.50.00 will depend on a careful examination of the specific chemical structure and properties of the imported or exported peroxide compound, ensuring it meets the defining characteristics of peroxides and is not specifically provided for in any other HTS classification. Examples might include specific organic hydroperoxides or dialkyl peroxides used as initiators in polymerization processes or as oxidizing agents, provided they are not specifically classified elsewhere.
