Summary
HS code 2909.60 covers alcohol peroxides, ether peroxides, acetal and hemiacetal peroxides, ketone peroxides and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives. It sits in heading 29.09 (ethers, ether-alcohols, ether-phenols, ether-alcohol-phenols, alcohol peroxides, ether peroxides, acetal and hemiacetal peroxides, ketone peroxides (whether or not chemically defined), and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives) in chapter 29 (organic chemicals). Other goods of heading 29.09 are classified under 2909.11 (acyclic ethers and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives, diethyl ether), 2909.19 (acyclic ethers and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives, other), 2909.20 (cyclanic, cyclenic or cycloterpenic ethers and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives), 2909.30 (aromatic ethers and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives) or 5 others. National tariff lines under 2909.60 are live on border.bot for the United States (3 lines, also used by 1 other country).

How it is structured
2909.60 is a six-digit subheading. Its first two digits, 29, are the chapter; the first four, 2909, are heading 29.09; the last two, 60, identify the subheading within the heading.
Countries add their own digits after these six for their national tariff lines.
