Import Tips
• Provide gas chromatography analysis confirming >99% methanal purity to distinguish from mixtures
• DOT/UN 1198 hazardous material declaration required; ensure cylinders meet 49 CFR specifications
• Avoid anti-dusting agents that could trigger reclassification under note (g) if rendering product for specific use
