The DSC diagram shows two endothermic peaks. The first peak at about 170°C has an endothermic energy of about 8 J/g. Begause of this small energy this peak can ruled out as the the melting point. The second peak has an endothermic energy of about 72 J/g. This is in the range of melting energies. Individual results:

 No.  Sample mass (mg)  Melting Point (°C)
 1  12.0  191.0
 2  11.1  191.4
 3  12.8  191.2
 Mean    191.2
Executive summary:

The melting point using DSC was measured according to ASTM E 537.
