Import Tips
• Include metallization thickness (nm) and dielectric constant specs to distinguish from plastic film (3920)
• Mark packages 'Capacitor dielectric film only - not for packaging use' to prevent reclassification
• Ensure country-of-origin reflects film metallization process, often different from base plastic origin
