Import Tips

• Verify styrene content ≤50% by dry weight via certificate of analysis to confirm classification under 4002.19.00.14

• Ensure product is in granules/crumbs/powders without vulcanizing agents or fillers per Chapter 40 Note 5 to avoid reclassification

• Provide manufacturer specs confirming solution polymerization process and primary form status
