Conclusions:
The melting point determination of test chemical was done as per the test guideline OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range). The method followed was according to Capillary/metal block. The test was conducted in replicates and mean melting point was determined to be in the range of 159°C to 162°C at 97780 Pa.
Executive summary:

The melting point determination of test chemical was done as per the test guideline OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range). The method followed was according to Capillary/metal block. The test was conducted in replicates and mean melting point was determined to be in the range of 159°C to 162°C at 97780 Pa.
