Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The melting point of the substance is 192 °C.
Executive summary:

The melting point of the substance was determined by DSC using a Mettler Toledo, DSC 823e device with a aluminium pan with hole.

The temperatur range was 25 - 350°C and the heating rate was 10 K/min. The melting point was found to be 192 °C.
