Import Tips
• Include certificates of analysis proving LDPE ethylene polymer purity per Chapter 39 subheading rules
• Document exact cross-sectional dimensions to exceed 1 mm threshold for monofilament/profile classification
• Watch for blending; copolymers below 95% ethylene shift to predominant monomer subheading
