Any other information on results incl. tables

The test item was not stable at ambient atmosphere (the test item was stored under nitrogen). For information, the test item, left for about one hour at ambient temperature changed: The clear yellow powder turned to a dark yellow powder that softened with time. In those conditions, the dry or wet sieving was not applicable to this test item.
