Import Tips
• NMR spectrum recommended to confirm diacetate vs monoacetate (different HTS treatment)
• REACH compliance documentation if European origin; harmonizes with TSCA requirements
• Avoid 'alcohol acetate' generic description; specify polyhydric alcohol prevents 2915.39.10 misclassification
