Test performed by DSC Q100 TA Instrument

Conditions:

Initial temperature: 25 °C

Temperature Gradient: 3 °C/min

Final temperature: 350 °C

Conclusions:
The test substance has a melting point of 287.2°C
Executive summary:

A test was done following guideline EU Method A.1 (DSC) from this it was shown that the melting point of the test substance was 278.2°C. Further to this it was shown the test substance decomposes above this temperature (278.2°C - 337°C).
