Import Tips
• Verify purity and hydration state via Certificate of Analysis to confirm classification under chemically defined barium chlorides
• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and ensure UN-approved packaging for corrosive hazardous material transport
• Avoid misclassification as a mixture by providing lab test results showing >95% BaCl2 content
