Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
6-[2-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine
EC Number:
254-074-6
EC Name:
6-[2-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine
Cas Number:
38668-46-1
Molecular formula:
C9H13N7
IUPAC Name:
6-[2-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine
Test material form:
solid: particulate/powder
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Please note that samples named 2MZ-A and 2MZA-PW are the same substance; 2MZA-PW is the crushed version of the substance.
The Applicant assumed that the crushed version of the substance would be more hazardous on some endpoints and therefore, that sample was used for some of the physicochemical studies.

GSD = Geometric standard deviation of the lognormal particle size distribution (calculated from d50/d15.78)

STDVP = standard deviation of the population

% STDVP = percentage standard deviation of the population

Coefficient of variation for d50 is less than 3%; d10 and d90 are less than 5%. Thus repeatability of the characteristic particles in the size distribution are within the acceptable limits as per the ISO 13320-1 test standard.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
MMAD (Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter) of the test substance was 54.4.
Executive summary:

The particle size distribution of the test item was measured in a GLP study performed using method ISO 13320 (Particle size analysis - Laser diffraction methods), using 2-Propanol as the dispersant. The particle size analysis produced the following results:
