Import Tips
• Slip agents are considered additives; if they exceed 1% by weight, the material may be a 'composition' under supplementary note 2, but this does not change the subheading
• Ensure the slip agent is listed on the safety data sheet and the VA content is documented
• If the slip agent is a separate masterbatch, it may be classified separately
