A preliminary study of the thermal stability of HNS in DMF, at both ambient (21/sup 0/C) and 120/sup 0/C, has shown that the solute is decomposed in DMF. Additional work to establish the rate of decomposition in the temperature range of processing (90 to 110/sup 0/C) is underway. NMR spectral analysis through peak integration is employed to monitor the system.
