Visual Microscope Analysis

(1) Standard visual observation: sample observed to be a medium to fine white powder with lumps and clusters.

(2) 100x magnification: particles appeared to be crystalline with needles and fibres (smallest +/- 3 µm and largest +/- 144 µm).

(3) 400x magnification: sample was observed to be made up of single crystalline particles. Some aggregations were also present.

Solubility and Dispersability Test

The sample proved to be insoluble and well dispersed in kerosene and silicone oil. During the method development kerosene was found to be unsuitable due to the obscuration data obtained. Therefore, silicone oil was used as the suspension fluid.

Laser Diffraction Particle Size Analysis

Average volume weighted mean was determined to be 39.043 µm.

Average mode was determined to be 27.875 µm.

The Coefficient of Variation (CV) for d50 was <3%. For d10 and d90 it was <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 at 100x magnification showed crystalline particles with needles and fibres between approximately 3 µm and 144 µm.
The particle size distribution of T001592 determined by the laser diffraction method led to the conclusion that the average volume weighted mean based on 5 runs was 39.043 µm and the Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD) based on 5 runs was 29.736 µm with a standard deviation (of the population) of 0.19 µm, whereas the average D10, D50 and the D90 were determined to be 7.198 µm, 26.597 µm and 80.779 µm, respectively.
