Import Tips
• Verify specific gravity certification (0.926-0.940) and monomer content (>95% ethylene) via lab testing to confirm classification
• Provide melt flow index and density specs in entry docs to avoid reclassification to low density
• Ensure pellets are free of additives exceeding 5% to stay in primary forms
