Import Tips

Verify purity certificate confirming yttrium >50% of rare-earth content and absence of cerium predominance to avoid reclassification

Include SDS and chemical analysis reports; ensure packaging prevents moisture absorption as it's hygroscopic

Check REACH/ TSCA compliance for US import; common pitfall is mislabeling as mixed oxide instead of chloride
