Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test item was determined to decompose, starting at 246.2°C, 246.36°C and 246.7°C; thus the reported average decomposition point is 246.42°C
Executive summary:

The test was performed as stated according to the OECD 102 melting point/Melting range method, adopted 27.07.95.

The test results of the caffeine control pre- and post-ahnalysis were determined to be 237.2 and 237.6°C both within a 95% confidence (1s).

The test item was determined to decompose, starting at 246.2°C, 246.36°C and 246.7°C; thus the reported average decomposition point is 246.42°C
