Import Tips
• Supply technical data sheets confirming solution polymerization, vinyl/styrene ratios, and bale packaging to avoid misclassification
• Ensure no cross-linking agents present; test for compliance with note 5(a) on uncompounded status
• Declare bale weight accurately; common pitfall is reclassification if bales show signs of processing
