Extract from the Harmonized System Explanatory Notes

Heading 1516 covers animal and vegetable fats and oils, which have undergone a specific chemical transformation of a kind mentioned below, but have not been further prepared.

The heading also covers similarly treated fractions of animal or vegetable fats and oils.

Hydrogenation, which is effected by bringing the products into contact with pure hydrogen at a suitable temperature and pressure in the presence of a catalyst (usually finely divided nickel), raises the melting points of fats and increases the consistency of oils by transforming unsaturated glycerides (e.g. of oleic, linoleic, etc. acids) into saturated glycerides of higher melting points (e.g. of palmitic, stearic, etc. acids).

Heading 1518 covers inedible mixtures or preparations of animal or vegetable fats or oils or of fractions of different fats or oils of the Chapter, not elsewhere specified or included.

This part covers, inter alia, used deep-frying oil containing, for example, rape oil, soya-bean oil and a small quantity of animal fat, for use in the preparation of animal feeds.

The heading also includes hydrogenated, inter-esterified, re-esterified or elaidinised fats and oils or their fractions, where modification involves more than one fat or oil.

Extract from the Harmonized System Explanatory Notes

For the purposes of this heading, the expression worked refers to materials which have undergone processes extending beyond the simple preparations permitted in the heading for the raw material in question (see the Explanatory Notes to headings 05.05 to 05.08). The heading therefore covers pieces of ivory, rods, etc., cut to shape (including square or rectangular) or polished or otherwise worked by grinding, drilling, milling, turning, etc. However, pieces which are identifiable as parts of articles are excluded from this heading if such parts are covered by another heading of the Nomenclature. Thus, piano-key plates and plates for insertion in butts of firearms fall in headings 92.09 and 93.05 respectively. However, worked materials not identifiable as parts of articles remain classified in this heading (e.g., simple discs, plates or strips for inlaying, etc., or for subsequent use in the manufacture of piano-keys).

Heading 9602 includes sheets of unhardened gelatine cut to shape other than square or rectangular. Sheets cut to rectangular (including square) shape, whether or not surface worked, fall in heading 35.03 or in Chapter 49 (e.g., postcards) (see the Explanatory Note to heading 35.03). Articles of unhardened gelatine include, for example:
