Analysis
HTS 2930.20.70 covers s-(2,3,3'-trichloroallyl)diisopropylthiocarbamate under heading 2930 (organo-sulfur compounds).
Rates on the nearby lines range from 3.7% to 6.5%. The costliest confusion would be with 2930.20.20 (aromatic: other) at 6.5%, a difference of 6.5 points on the customs value.
There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 26% of the 1050 tariff lines in chapter 29 that are also free. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 25% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 25% duty.
The other lines in the same group are 2930.20.10 (aromatic: pesticides, 6.5%), 2930.20.20 (aromatic: other, 6.5%) and 2930.20.90 (other: other, 3.7%).
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 325199 (All Other Basic Organic Chemical Manufacturing), an industry of 894 US establishments employing 77,304 people, the industry a domestic producer of these goods reports under.
