- Conclusions:
- The melting point was determined using DSC by heating from 20°C to 180°C with a ramp of 10°C/min. Two determinations were made and the results were averaged.
Melting Point = 157.1 ± 0.4°C at atmospheric pressure.
- Executive summary:
The melting point of the substance was determined according to EU Method A.1. The melting point was determined using DSC method by heating from 20°C to 180°C with a ramp of 10°C/min. Two determinations were made and the results were averaged. Under the study conditions, the melting point of the substance was determined to be 157.1 ± 0.4°C at atmospheric pressure (Blake, 2002).
