Import Tips
• Include GC-MS analysis confirming >98% purity to avoid mixture classification under chapter 38
• Declare proper UN 1100 hazardous material shipping documentation for flammability Class 3
• Monitor for anti-dusting agents; excessive additives trigger reclassification per chapter note 2(g)
