Last updated: July 2026 dataCarbonization — treating wool with sulfuric acid or similar agents to destroy embedded vegetable matter — is the defining processing step that places raw wool in this heading rather than the greasy or scoured headings. Australia leads US imports, with China and the United Kingdom also supplying carbonized wool. The four 10-digit lines distinguish wool that has received no processing beyond carbonization (5101304000) from further-processed or finer-grade material, with fineness thresholds at 40S. Carbonized wool is a key input for woolen (as opposed to worsted) spinning systems, where vegetable contamination would otherwise degrade yarn quality.

Yes — carbonization is often performed on scoured wool. When both processes have been applied, heading 510130 governs, because carbonization is the more specific processing criterion. The degreased headings (510121 and 510129) explicitly exclude carbonized wool, so the presence of carbonization always directs classification to 510130.
Line 5101304000 covers wool that has been carbonized and received no further processing beyond that step. Lines 5101306500 and 5101307000 apply to carbonized wool that has undergone additional processing: 5101306500 is limited to wool not finer than 40S, while 5101307000 is the general residual for other carbonized wool. The processing history and fineness grade together determine which line applies.
