Unbleached Kraft Condenser Tissue Paper 25 g/m² from Japan

This unbleached kraft paper, weighing 25 g/m², is specifically designed as condenser tissue for use in electrical capacitors to provide dielectric insulation between conductive layers. It meets the criteria for HTS 4804.31.10.00 as unbleached kraft paperboard in rolls or sheets, weighing over 15 but not over 30 g/m², and qualifies as condenser paper due to its high purity and density for electrical applications. The chemical sulfate process fibers ensure minimal impurities for reliable performance in high-voltage environments.

Import Tips

• Verify exact grammage (15-30 g/m²) and unbleached kraft composition via mill certificates to avoid reclassification to higher weight subheadings

• Provide test reports confirming suitability as condenser paper (high dielectric strength) and ensure rolls/sheets format per Chapter 48 notes
