These terms are not intended to
quantitatively state that one has a DS =
2.0 and the other a DS = 3.0.
The petition covers cellulose acetate
(degree of substitution = 1.5¥2.0),
commonly referred to as cellulose
diacetate. Cellulose acetate in this range
generally has similar properties. The
petition uses the lowest end of the range
cellulose acetate DS = 1.5 to
demonstrate that >20% of the substance
is made from taxable chemicals, and the
midpoint cellulose acetate DS = 1.75 to
calculate the tax rate for the entire
range.
(6) Process Identified in Petition as
Predominant Method of Production of
Substance: Cellulose acetate is derived
from cellulose by deconstructing wood
pulp into a purified cellulose. The
cellulose is reacted with acetic acid and
acetic anhydride in the presence of
sulfuric acid. It is subjected to a
controlled, partial hydrolysis to remove
the sulfate and a sufficient number of
acetate groups to give the product the
desired degree of substitution. The
polymer unit is the fundamental
repeating structure of cellulose and has
three hydroxyl groups which can react
to form acetate esters. The most
common form of cellulose acetate fiber
has an acetate group on approximately
two of every three hydroxyls, referred to
as cellulose diacetate. In Petitioner’s
cellulose acetate, the actual substitution
is 1.674 acetate/cellulose, a degree of
substitution commonly used in US
cellulose acetate production.
(7) Stoichiometric Material
Consumption Equation, Based on
Process Identified as Predominant
Method of Production:
3.5 CH4 + 1.75 O2 + C6H10O5 →
C9.5H13.5O6.75 + 3.50 H2 + 1.75 H2O
(8) Rate of Tax Calculated by
Petitioner Based on Petitioner’s
Conversion Factors for Taxable
Chemicals Used in Production of
Substance:

Calculation of Tax Rate using mid-point
cellulose acetate DS = 1.75
Rate of Tax: $1.65 per ton
Conversion Factor: 0.24 methane
