Electrical Condenser Tissue Paper from China

Ultra-thin, high-purity paper in rolls weighing under 150 g/m², specifically designed for use as dielectric insulation in oil-filled electrical capacitors. It meets the precise specifications for condenser paper under HTS 4805.91.20.00 due to its uncoated nature, low weight, and suitability for high-voltage applications without further processing.

Import Tips

Verify paper meets condenser-specific electrical insulation standards (e.g

low conductivity, high dielectric strength) with mill test certificates to avoid reclassification

Provide documentation proving weight ≤150 g/m² and uncoated status; common pitfall is misdeclaring as lightweight coated paper under 4810

Confirm not further worked (e.g

no impregnation); inspect for chapter note 3 compliance on processing limits
