Import Tips

Submit isomer ratio certificates (typically 50/50 cis/trans) to distinguish from 1-butene or isobutylene

Ensure DOT/UN 1012 classification for 2-butene and proper placarding on transport containers

Monitor volatility specs against Chapter Note definitions to prevent reclassification as light oils
