Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The boiling range was determined according to ASTM D1160 and found to be approximately 22° - 120°C. After distilling approximately 90 %(v/v) the distillation was ended due to cracking, which was most likely caused by decomposition of dicyclopentadiene back in cyclopentadiene.
