Import Tips
• Verify PMMA content exceeds 95% by weight via lab testing to confirm classification under poly(methyl methacrylate) per Chapter 39 notes
• Provide detailed material composition certificates to avoid misclassification as copolymers or other polymers
• Ensure sheets are declared as non-reinforced; common pitfall is undeclared edge treatments resembling lamination
