Import Tips
• Verify purity and chemical identity with certificates of analysis to confirm classification as a chemically defined vanadium chloride oxide
• Ensure proper hazardous material documentation (e.g
• SDS) and UN packaging for corrosive liquids during import
• Avoid misclassification as a simple chloride by checking for the oxide component in the molecular structure
