no
Conclusions:
The mean melting point of Bis-MPA is 190 °C (439 K) at atmospheric pressure (101.3 kPa).
Upon melting, decomposition was observed.
Executive summary:

In an experimental study similar to OECD 102, the mean melting point of Bis-MPA was determined using the differential scanning calorimetry method. The melting point is around 190 °C (463 K) at 101.3 kPa. Upon melting, decomposition occurrs.
