    (2018/C 191/05)

    Pursuant to Article 9(1)(a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 (1), the Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature of the European Union (2) are hereby amended as follows:

    On page 182, in the explanatory note to CN subheadings ‘3824 99 92 and 3824 99 93 Chemical products or preparations, predominantly composed of organic compounds, not elsewhere specified or included’  (3) the following text is added:

    ‘These subheadings include oxo oils and their fractions subjected to partial or complete esterification, alkoxylation, condensation or hydrolysis. They are Heavy Oxo Fraction (HOF) by-products of oxo processes (including oxo synthesis) which include the by-products of hydroformylation (Fischer Tropsch reaction from alkenes to aldehydes) and the distillation residues from the preparation of oxo alcohols. They mainly contain aldehydes, ethers, ether-alcohols, alcohols, esters and carboxylic acids with some possible minor amounts of other substances (for instance, olefins and paraffins).

    These subheadings do not cover Light Oxo Fraction (LOF) by-products of oxo processes which are mainly composed of olefins and paraffins (heading 2710).’
