Import Tips
• Verify chemical purity and provide Certificate of Analysis (CoA) to confirm it meets 'chemically defined' criteria per Chapter 28 Note 1
• Ensure DOT/UN proper shipping name and packaging for corrosive Class 8 materials; common pitfall is inadequate labeling
• Include Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and TSCA certification for environmental compliance
