Overview

This HTS classification, 2914.40.10.00, specifically covers Diacetone alcohol, also known by its chemical name 4-Hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-one. Diacetone alcohol is a clear, colorless liquid with a mild, pleasant odor. It is characterized by the presence of both a ketone and a hydroxyl (alcohol) functional group within the same molecule, making it a ketone-alcohol. This dual functionality contributes to its solvent properties and reactivity.

Within the broader category of "Ketone-alcohols and ketone-aldehydes," this specific subheading distinguishes itself by the precise chemical structure of Diacetone alcohol. While other entries under "Ketone-alcohols and ketone-aldehydes" might cover different combinations of functional groups or specific aldehydes, 2914.40.10.00 is dedicated solely to this particular chemical compound. The "Other" sibling category would encompass any other ketone-alcohols or ketone-aldehydes not otherwise specified.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within this specific HTS code. Classification at this level is definitive for Diacetone alcohol. Its primary applications include its use as a solvent for lacquers, coatings, and inks, as well as an intermediate in the synthesis of other organic chemicals. Proper identification based on chemical analysis and documentation is crucial for accurate classification.
