This HTS category, 9902.02.11, pertains to Sodium methylate in powder form, identified by CAS No. 124-41-4. While its primary chemical classification is found under subheading 2905.19.90, this specific code within Chapter 99 signifies a temporary legislation or modification affecting its import. This means that beyond its inherent chemical properties, its import is subject to special rules or restrictions dictated by trade agreements or agricultural adjustment provisions.

As a leaf node within Chapter 99, this category does not have further subdivisions. Its significance lies in the temporary or special import provisions that apply to this particular form of sodium methylate. Unlike the broader categories within the HTS, such as those for live animals or manufactured goods, this classification is highly specific and points to the unique regulatory treatment of this chemical compound.

The purpose of this specialized HTS code is to manage the importation of sodium methylate powder under specific, often temporary, circumstances. This could be due to trade policy adjustments, quotas, or other measures designed to regulate its entry into the domestic market. Importers and customs brokers must carefully consult the associated legislation and proclamations referenced within Section XXII to understand the full scope of requirements for goods classified under 9902.02.11.
