Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for improving the color stability by postpurifying piperazine, the steps comprising preparing an aqueous piperazine solution by introducing solid or liquid piperazine having a degree of purity of at least 90% by weight in water; removing the water by distillation; isolating the piperazine with a predefined maximum residual content of water. The invention further provides a rapid test of aging for checking the improvement in the color stability.
