To suspend temporarily the duty on 1,2-Benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one (9CI).

H.R. 3224 is a legislative proposal that would temporarily eliminate the import taxes, or duties, on a specific chemical compound known as 1,2-Benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one. This chemical is a widely used antimicrobial agent and preservative found in various consumer and industrial products, such as paints, adhesives, and cleaning supplies. By suspending these duties through the end of 2008, the bill aims to lower the costs for domestic manufacturers who rely on this imported ingredient, which can help maintain the affordability of the finished goods for American consumers.
