- The physical state and the odor tests we carried out by subjective assessment.
The physical test has been performed as follows:
A small quantity of atrazine technical was evenly distributed onto a watch glass and the physical state observed at 20°C.
The odour test has been performed as follows:
Atrazine (technical) contained in a glass jar exposed to the atmosphere at 20°C. A current of air was created across the open neck of the jar by light waving of the hand. this air was carefully smelt. - GLP compliance:
- yes

Results and discussion
- Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
- solid
Form / colour / odour
- Form:
- powder
- Colour:
- Atrtazine (technical) was seen to be bright white with a 90% reflectance equivalent to a N 9.5/white on the neutral scale of the Munsell Book of Color. the appaerance of the test compound was compared to the Munsell neutral value scale.
- Odour:
- odourless
- Substance type:
- organic
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Atrazine (technical) appaered as a fine white powder at 20°C
