Import Tips
• Counterion analysis (Na+ content) required to confirm salt formation doesn't alter organic compound classification
• pH stability data essential as sodium sulfonates affect shipping and storage requirements
• Avoid retail packaging that triggers Chapter 32 dye classification exclusion
