About heading 2915

Saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acids and their anhydrides, halides, peroxides and peroxyacids; their halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives

Heading 2915 covers saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acids and their anhydrides, halides, peroxides and peroxyacids, plus their halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives. The heading is split first by the parent acid family: formic (2915.11 to 2915.13), acetic (2915.21 to 2915.39), chloroacetic (2915.40), propionic (2915.50), butanoic and pentanoic (2915.60), palmitic and stearic (2915.70), and a residual Other group (2915.90). Within each family the lines separate the acid itself, its salts, its anhydride and its esters, and often distinguish aromatic from non-aromatic and odoriferous or flavoring compounds from other esters.
