During the heating phase a distinct endothermic effect was observed in the temperature range of 120 - 140 °C, which can be assigned to the melting of the test item. As the onset temperatures in both tests do not deviate by more than 0.5 K from their mean value of 128.47 °C, this temperature can be used as melting point. The test item has a melting point of 128.5 °C.

The test item showed a second endothermic signal in the temperature range of 350 - 450 °C that can be assigned to the boiling of the test item.

For the correction of the boiling temperature to standard pressure the test item was assigned to chemical group 3 (e.g. methyl benzoate). A correction value φ = 5.6 was used for the temperature range from 370 °C to 380 °C.

The lowest measured onset temperature is corrected to the standard pressure to be 372.92 °C and the highest onset temperature to be 380.93 °C. As the corrected onset temperatures in both tests deviate by more than 0.5 K from their mean value of 376.93 °C, the test item has a boiling range from 373 °C to 381 °C.
