Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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


up to 2 µm: 0.2 %


2 -200 µm: 93.4 %


> 200 µm: 6.3 %


All %-values are the average of two measurements.

Conclusions:
The median mass diameter was determined as 71.71 µm.
Executive summary:

The particle size distribution was determined in an experimental study under GLP conditions according to OECD Test Guideline 110 using the laser diffraction method with wet dispersion.


The median mass diameter was determined as 71.71 µm, while the 10 %-quantile was 35.23 µm and the 90 %-quantile was 156.98 µm.
