HSChapter 29
Harmonized System
Bearing both an ethyl and a 2-hydroxyethyl group on the sulfonamide nitrogen, this PFAS compound occupies its own enumerated HS6 position (293530) within the perfluorooctane sulfonamide series, classified under tariff line 2935300000. The hydroxyethyl functionality distinguishes it from the simpler N-ethyl variant and is relevant to its historical use as a fluorosurfactant intermediate. Switzerland is the leading documented US supplier, reflecting the country's established specialty fluorochemical manufacturing base.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The HS separately enumerates each perfluorooctane sulfonamide variant because their distinct substituent groups give them different chemical properties, end uses, and regulatory profiles. The hydroxyethyl group in this compound made it a key intermediate in fluoropolymer and fluorosurfactant production, justifying its own statistical tracking line.
Mixtures are generally classified by the component that imparts the mixture's essential character, or under the heading applicable to the constituent present in the greatest proportion. If the mixture is a formulated product rather than a pure chemical, it may fall outside Chapter 29 entirely. Consult a licensed customs broker to determine the correct heading for mixed PFAS formulations.
