Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Conclusions:
Melting point: 189.4 ± 0.6ºC
Executive summary:

The study was conducted to determine the melting point of the test substance, according to the guidelines OECD Guideline No. 102, OPPTS 830.7200 and EEC Method A.1.

The melting point of test substance was determined by photocell detection using the “Buchi Melting Point B-545 instrument”. The melting point of test substance was determined to be 189.4 ± 0.6ºC.
