U.S. imports of Saturated Chlorinated Derivatives of Acyclic Hydrocarbons, N.E.S. (SITC 51136) totaled $4.0M in August 2026, imported from 17 countries.
Importers of Saturated Chlorinated Derivatives of Acyclic Hydrocarbons, N.E.S. paid $492K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 12.27% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataSaturated chlorinated acyclic derivatives not elsewhere specified encompass a broad range of specialty solvents, intermediates, and process chemicals — including certain chlorinated paraffins — that do not fit more specific commodity headings. Chlorinated paraffins within this grouping are subject to heightened scrutiny under EPA's TSCA risk-evaluation program due to persistence and bioaccumulation concerns, which can affect import eligibility and downstream use. Accurate classification requires confirming both the saturation of the carbon chain and the absence of a more specific applicable heading.

Short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) have been subject to EPA TSCA risk evaluation and are listed as chemicals of concern due to persistence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity. Importers should verify the chain-length profile of their product and monitor EPA regulatory actions, as use restrictions or reporting requirements may apply.
Classification in the N.E.S. residual is appropriate only after ruling out all named saturated chlorinated headings (such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, and EDC). A certificate of analysis confirming molecular structure and chain length, combined with a systematic review of the applicable nomenclature schedule, is the standard approach.
