Any other information on results incl. tables

First test results

The heat flow record showed an endothermic effect between 71 °C and 98 °C, with peak at 92 °C and onset at 90 °C. The melting point is 90 °C.

 

Second test results

The heat flow record showed an endothermic effect between 72 °C and 97 °C, with peak at 92 °C and onset at 90 °C. The melting point is 90 °C.

 

Conclusion

The melting temperature of the test item is 90 °C (the mean of two measurements).
