not measured

Any other information on results incl. tables

At 20°C and 35°C no degradation of the free base was observed. At 50°C only a very slight degradation rate of 0.02 % was detected. Duration of the test: 2 months.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test substance is stable in n-hexane.
