Visual Microscope Analysis

(1) Standard visual observation: sample observed to be a medium and coarse white powder.

(2)  3.2 objective lens: particles appeared to be irregular shaped crystals (smallest +/- 19 µm and largest +/- 960 µm).

(3) 40 objective lens: sample was observed to be made up of single crystalline particles.

 

Laser Diffraction Particle Size Analysis

Using the identified parameters, the particle size was analysed over the range 0.2 μm to 2000 μm.

The average Volume weighted Mean was 426.456µm and the mode was 488.994µm. The Coefficient of Variation for d50 was <3%; d10 and d90 were <5%. Thus the repeatability of the characteristic particles in the size distribution was within the acceptable limits according to the ISO 13320-1 test standard.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Visual examination using 3.2 objective lens showed irregular shaped crystals between approximately 19 µm and 960 µm.
The particle size distribution of T003641 determined by the laser diffraction method led to the conclusion that the average volume weighted mean based on 5 runs was 426.456 µm and the Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD) based on 5 runs was 454.026 µm, whereas the average D10, D50 and the D90 were determined to be 2.672 µm, 4.997 µm and 10.705 µm, respectively.
