Import Tips
• Verify purity and chemical composition via lab analysis to confirm classification under 2827 as chemically defined inorganic chloride
• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and ensure compliance with EPA TSCA regulations for chemical imports
• Avoid misclassification as a mixture; pure zinc chloride must be distinguished from solutions or formulations
