About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 2916.12.50.40, specifically classifies 2-Ethyl-1-hexyl acrylate. It falls under the broader group of esters derived from acrylic acid. This compound is characterized by its acrylic acid ester backbone with a branched, eight-carbon alkyl group, the 2-ethyl-1-hexyl moiety, attached to the ester oxygen. Its primary use is as a monomer in the production of polymers and copolymers, which find applications in adhesives, coatings, textiles, and other industrial materials due to the properties imparted by the bulky alkyl side chain, such as flexibility and adhesion.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. While 2916.12.50.10, 2916.12.50.20, and 2916.12.50.30 cover ethyl acrylate, methyl acrylate, and butyl acrylate respectively, this entry specifically addresses the ester formed with the longer, branched 2-ethyl-1-hexyl alcohol. The 'Other' category within this level, 2916.12.50.50, would encompass any other acrylic acid esters not explicitly listed by name.

As a leaf node within the HTS structure, 2-Ethyl-1-hexyl acrylate, HTS code 2916.12.50.40, does not have further subcategories. This means that any product falling under this description, when meeting the defined chemical characteristics, will be classified directly here. Classification decisions at this level rely on the precise chemical identity and the confirmation that the substance is indeed an ester of acrylic acid with the 2-ethyl-1-hexyl group, ensuring it is not a different type of acrylic ester or a related chemical compound.
