About HS Code 292419
This "other" HS code covers a vast array of acyclic amides and their derivatives, excluding the specifically enumerated compounds in 292411 and 292412. These chemicals are incredibly versatile and find applications across numerous industries. They serve as intermediates in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, polymers, and specialty chemicals. Many are also used as solvents, plasticizers, and active ingredients in personal care products or industrial formulations. Major importers include pharmaceutical companies, agrochemical manufacturers, polymer producers, and chemical distributors globally. Exporters are typically large chemical companies with diverse product portfolios and advanced synthesis capabilities. Key considerations for trade involve the high purity requirements for specific applications, managing diverse regulatory landscapes depending on the end-use (e.g., food contact, pharmaceutical), and the need for robust supply chain management for these often-critical raw materials. The market is highly fragmented but globally significant.
Products Under This Code
Dimethylformamide (DMF), N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), Acetamide, Urea (as an amide derivative), Formamide, Acrylamide, Butyramide
Real World Examples
BASF Dimethylformamide, LyondellBasell N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone, Sigma-Aldrich Acetamide, Evonik Acrylamide
Common Misclassification
This code is frequently confused with other organic chemicals in Chapter 29 if their amide functional group is not the primary classification criterion, or with formulated products in other chapters where these amides are components (e.g., 3809 for finishing agents, 3906 for acrylic polymers).
Industry
This code belongs to the Chemicals industry.
Trade Overview
China, the USA, Germany, and Japan are major players in both the production and consumption of these diverse acyclic amide derivatives.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is HS code 292419?
HS code 292419 covers: Acyclic amides (including acyclic carbamates) and their derivatives; salts thereof, other than meprobamate (INN), fluoroacetamide (ISO), monocrotophos (ISO) or phosphamidon (ISO).
