Additional information

The melting point determination of test substance was done as per the test guideline OECD 102. The method followed was according to Capillary. The melting point was determined to be in the range of 170-175°C at 978.3hPa.

From other experimental report, the melting point of test substance, by the capillary method was determined to be 182 degC at an atmospheric pressure of 990 hPa.There was no decomposition & sublimation observed.

Also from other reliable sources, melting point of test substance was determined to be 175-177 degC.
