Import Tips
• ICP-MS metal analysis (<1ppb) and particle count (<50/ml) certificates mandatory for electronic grade verification
• Special cleanroom double-bagging required; standard packaging causes reclassification as technical grade
• Declare 'not for potable use'; electronics methanol with food-grade confusion risks health regulation scrutiny
