Anhydrous Tetrahydrofuran (THF) Stabilized with BHT
Anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (THF) stabilized with butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) to prevent peroxide formation during storage and transport. The stabilizer is added solely for safety and preservation, which is permitted under Chapter 29 Note 1(f) without altering the classification of the base compound.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the BHT stabilizer is present only in quantities necessary for preservation and does not exceed typical industry levels, as excessive amounts could affect classification
• Provide a safety data sheet (SDS) and a certificate of analysis to the CBSA to confirm the product's identity and purity
• Verify if a controlled substances permit is needed, as THF is a monitored chemical in Canada
