Overview
This HTS category, 9902.07.95, specifically covers a group of complex chemical mixtures identified as disperse dyes. These dyes are formulated for application to synthetic fibers, particularly polyester, and are characterized by their low water solubility and high sublimation properties, allowing them to penetrate and color the fiber effectively. The detailed chemical names and CAS numbers provided highlight the precise nature of these specialized coloring agents, including Disperse Blue ANT, Disperse Green GNA, Disperse Yellow FC60954, Disperse Red DYNS 2246, and Disperse Yellow DYLA 1306.
As a temporary legislative provision within Chapter 99, this classification is distinct from the permanent HTS categories that classify goods based on their inherent nature and function (e.g., dyes under Chapter 32). While other headings might cover general dye preparations or specific dye types, 9902.07.95 is reserved for these particular disperse dye mixtures under specific, temporary import restrictions or modifications, as proclaimed pursuant to trade agreements legislation or Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. Its placement within Section XXII underscores its role as a temporary measure outside the standard trade classifications.
This is a leaf node within Chapter 99, meaning there are no further subdivisions under this specific HTS code. Consequently, all goods meeting the precise chemical and nomenclature criteria outlined in the description fall directly under this heading. Classification relies heavily on the exact chemical composition and the inclusion in the list of specified disperse dyes.
