Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

The cumulative percentage by weight of the test article collected at each successive stage was plotted by computer as a probability value against the logarithmic value of the upper class limit of that stage. The point at which the cumulative distribution line crossed the 50 percentile was the estimate of the mass aerodynamic diameter (MMAD). The Geometric Standard deviation was calculated.

Conclusions:
MMAD was determined using a cascade impaction method.

Conclusions:
Particle size distribution for dinotefuran was determined by laser diffraction in the size range of 0.02 to 2000 µm. Dinotefuran was determined to have d(0.1), d(0.5) and d(0.9) values of 3.2, 26.8 and 57.4 µm respectively.
