129.3 °C
Atm. press.:
101.3 kPa
Decomposition:
no
Sublimation:
no
Remarks on result:
other: corresponding to 402.4 K

The mean of triplicate measurement of the melting point was 402.4 K (129.3 °C), which was in the temperature range described in the quality criteria section of the guideline. The accuracy was larger than the criteria (± 0.1 K), and accordingly the S.D. was calculated as 0.2 K.
