following observations are made during freezing:

Stage A: The sample temperature decreases uniformly.

Stage B: The sample temperature rises suddenly as the test item crystallizes.

Stage C: The sample temperature remains constant for a short time.

Conclusions:
A freezing range according to the criteria of the guidelines could be determined at -32 °C to -35 °C. At the end of the measurement, the test item (Resorcinol diacetate) was solid.
Executive summary:

For Resorcinol diacetate a freezing range at -32 °C to -35 °C was determined.

Description of key information

A freezing range according to the criteria of the guidelines could be determined at -32 °C to -35 °C for Resorcinol diacetate.
