Phytosanitary Products

Physical-Chemical Characterization

Phytosanitary studies in the area of physicochemical characterization testing can be grouped into several types of studies:

  • High- and low-temperature accelerated stability studies

  • Studies at room temperature for 2 years

  • Validation of methods of analysis of active ingredients and quantification of their active ingredients
  • Determination of physical and chemical properties (explosive, oxidizing, flammability, properties according to CIPAC, etc.)
  • Studies 5 batches of technician (5 BATCH PROFILE)

Within these studies, the determinations included in the area of physicochemical characterization testing of phytosanitary products are:

  • Free Alkalinity/Acidity
  • Appearance, color and odor
