Import Tips

• Provide quantitative elemental analysis confirming lithium and fluorine content ratios specific to PFOA salt

• Declare under TSCA with PFOA-specific identifiers; non-compliance can result in import refusal

• Ensure temperature-controlled shipping as lithium salts have specific stability requirements
