Import Tips

Verify purity ≥98% via Certificate of Analysis to confirm classification as chemically defined compound under Chapter 29

Include SDS and REACH compliance docs; sulfonic acids may trigger hazardous material shipping requirements

Avoid misclassification as sulfonated dye intermediate (3204) by ensuring no coloring properties
