Import Tips
• Label packages clearly as 'luminophore pigment for industrial coloring' to distinguish from raw chemicals
• Include end-use declarations if for commercial coatings to prevent reclassification as Chapter 28 commodity
• Test for dispersion in nonaqueous media; such forms may classify under 3212 if paint-ready
