Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Document stabilizer as necessary for preservation (not for specific end-use) with concentration under 1% typically

β€’ Ensure stabilizer doesn't confer new functionality that would reclassify as mixture under 3824

β€’ Maintain batch records showing pentachlorophenol as principal component (>98%)
