2926.90.50.10 - Malononitrile 🖩

This HTS category, 2926.90.50.10, specifically classifies Malononitrile. Malononitrile is a dinitrile compound characterized by its chemical structure, which features two nitrile groups attached to a single methylene carbon. This chemical is a key intermediate in organic synthesis, often utilized in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and polymers. Its specific classification under this code reflects its precise chemical identity and its primary role as a building block in more complex chemical manufacturing processes.

Within the broader 'Nitrile-function compounds: Other: Other' category, this specific subheading is distinguished by its singular focus on Malononitrile. While sibling category 2926.90.50.50 also falls under 'Other', it is designated for 'Other' nitrile-function compounds that are not Malononitrile. Therefore, the key differentiator is the distinct chemical entity being classified.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification at this level requires accurate identification of the imported or exported substance as Malononitrile. Importers and exporters should ensure that their documentation clearly states the chemical name and, where possible, provides supporting analytical data to confirm the material's identity as Malononitrile, thereby ensuring compliance with customs regulations.
