Last updated: July 2026 dataCyclohexanol and its methyl- and dimethyl-substituted homologs are alicyclic alcohols used as solvents, chemical intermediates for nylon precursors, and plasticizer feedstocks, all entering under the single line 2906120000. Japan is the leading US supplier, reflecting its integrated petrochemical sector, with China the second-ranked source. Importers should note that goods originating in China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs, and the relatively narrow supplier base — concentrated in Japan, China, and Germany — creates meaningful concentration risk for downstream manufacturers.

Cyclohexanol is a key intermediate in the production of caprolactam and adipic acid, both precursors to nylon. Methylcyclohexanols serve as high-boiling solvents in coatings and as intermediates in fine chemical synthesis. Understanding the end-use application is important for determining whether any downstream product restrictions or export controls apply.
Cyclohexanol and its homologs originating in China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers should confirm the applicable Section 301 list coverage for the specific compound and consult a licensed customs broker to assess current duty exposure before contracting.
