Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Wieghed amounts of both components were placed in glass tubes, 40 mm across and 65 mm long, and shaken. Clear and cloud points were observed 5-6 times to within 0.2-0.3 °C.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Source unspecified; distilled; no turbidity if cooled to -10 or -20 °C.
   (2) Twice distilled.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: not specified
   Temperature: ± 0.3 °C
