Import Tips & Compliance

• Classify based on principal amine function; provide structural formula confirming acyclic chain

• Distinguish from ethylenediamine (2921.29) via substitution analysis certificate

• Monitor vapor pressure for DOT shipping; common error is inadequate ventilation requirements
