Import Tips
• Document stabilizer concentration <0.1% and confirm it doesn't render product suitable for specific use beyond preservation
• Stability testing data showing peroxide formation <50 meq/kg after 6 months storage required
• Avoid higher concentrations that could trigger 'preparation' classification in 3824
