Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
melting point > 320 °C
Executive summary:

The melting point (range) for the test item was determined according to EU method A.1 (compliant with GLP): a melt microscope (Kofler-Schmelzmikroskop) was used. No melting of the test item could be observed. Thus, the melting point was determined to be > 320° C.
