Import Tips
• Carbon chain distribution analysis essential to confirm C14 purity within ±0.5% specification limits
• Biodegradability data may be required for certain destination countries' chemical import regulations
• Temperature-controlled shipping recommended (keep below 50°C) to prevent polymerization during transit
