Remarks on result:
other: ± 0.5

A total of 6 samples were heated with a heating rate of 3 K/min (from 45 °C to 75 °C) and with 1 K/min. (from 75 °C to 95 °C). All samples were completely molten between 83.7 °C and 84.9 °C. After the measurement the samples were slightly yellow but not completely transparent.

Conclusions:
The melting point of test substance was determined to be 84.3°C at 1013 hPa
Executive summary:

In this guideline (OECD 102) study conducted to GLP standards, the test material (EC 444-860-9) was determined to have a melting point of 84.3°C at 1013 hPa.
