  • Lot. 500181201, Experiment 2: 2.61 µm
  • Lot. 500190201, Experiment 1: 2.47 µm
  • Lot. 500190201, Experiment 2: 2.51 µm

Volume mean diameter:

  • Lot. 500181201, Experiment 1: 5.76 µm
  • Lot. 500181201, Experiment 2: 5.63 µm
  • Lot. 500190201, Experiment 1: 5.45 µm
  • Lot. 500190201, Experiment 2: 5.51 µm
Conclusions:
The surface mean diameter of the test material is determined between 2.47 - 2.71 µm (arithmetic mean: 2.58 µm). The volume mean diameter of the test material is determined between 5.45 - 5.76 µm (arithmetic mean: 5.59 µm). The D50 ranges between 4.36 - 4.94 µm (arithmetic mean: 4.61 µm).
Executive summary:

The particle size distribution of the test material was determined using laser diffraction for two product lots (two experimental runs per sample). The surface mean diameter of the test material is determined between 2.47 - 2.71 µm (arithmetic mean: 2.58 µm). The volume mean diameter of the test material is determined between 5.45 - 5.76 µm (arithmetic mean: 5.59 µm). The D50 ranges between 4.36 - 4.94 µm (arithmetic mean: 4.61 µm).
