About heading 2901

Acyclic hydrocarbons

Heading 2901 covers acyclic hydrocarbons, meaning hydrocarbon molecules that are not ring-shaped. It is split first by saturation: 2901.10 for saturated compounds and 2901.21 through 2901.29 for unsaturated ones. The unsaturated lines name specific chemicals such as ethylene, propene, butenes, butadiene and isoprene, with residual lines for other compounds and for products derived from petroleum, shale oil or natural gas. Every line in this heading carries a general (MFN) rate of Free.
