Import Tips & Compliance
• Certify ≥98% purity and CAS 128-39-2 to distinguish from polymer additives classified elsewhere
• Include stabilization data if product contains anticaking agents (allowed per Chapter 29 note 1(f))
• Pre-notify CBP if large volume import, as hindered phenols face enhanced scrutiny
