Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
particle size distribution (granulometry)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1 February 2016 - 12 February 2016
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 110 (Particle Size Distribution / Fibre Length and Diameter Distributions) - Method B: Fibre Length and Diameter Distributions
Version / remarks:
Since the material is water soluble and of non-fibrous nature, the OECD guideline was not applicable. The magnesium methanolate samples are measured as dry powder in an aerosol beam.
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
The magnesium methanolate samples are measured as dry powder in an aerosol beam.
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The magnesium methanolate samples are measured as dry powder in an aerosol beam.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
Laser scattering/diffraction
Type of particle tested:
other: granular

Percentile:
D90
Mean:
ca. 368 µm
St. dev.:

Conclusions:
The range from D50 (X50) = 20 - 200 μm range is typical for magnesium methanolate.

The particle size distribution (volume distribution) of the test item was measured by laser diffraction.
The average of three measurements is:
d10: 25.8 μm
d50: 134.5 μm
d90: 368.2 μm
The sample is not at the nanoscale.
