Import Tips

• Provide detailed chemical analysis (NMR, GC-MS) confirming the phosphorus-methyl bond and absence of additional carbon chains to verify classification

• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and end-use declarations, as DMMP has potential dual-use applications requiring export control compliance

• Ensure packaging complies with DOT/UN hazardous materials regulations for flammable liquids
