Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If containing >0.5% impurities or blended with stabilizers
Impure epichlorohydrin or stabilized formulations classified as carboxylic acid derivatives rather than pure epoxides.
If imported as formulated solution for specific industrial application
Solutions not meeting Chapter 29 solvent/stabilizer exceptions fall under chemical preparations.
If imported as epoxy resin precursor mixture with alcohols
Alcohol-epoxide mixtures classified by principal function under halogenated alcohols.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and purity certificates to verify classification under Chapter 29 as a chemically defined epoxide
• Ensure drums are UN-approved for corrosive liquids (UN 2023) with proper Hazard Class 6.1 labeling
• Avoid misclassification as mixtures; single-compound shipments must have assay >98% purity documentation
