Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide end-use statement for ink manufacturing to support solvent classification if questioned
• Low water content specification (<0.05%) critical for ink applications; include test data
• Avoid bulk petroleum declarations; specify chemical purity to maintain Chapter 29 status
