Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The particle size distribution of the milled press cake is not of interest as this dyestuff is handled during production only as a wet press cake and at downstream users as a preparation containing dispersing and dedusting agents which encapsulethe dye particles and lead hence to larger particles.
The substance is either isolated together with dispersing agent by spray drying or is mixed with dedusting agents and is isolated as dedusted powder, hence the particle size is not a function of the chemical substance but a function of the finishing procedure used. A typical particle size for the finished product as imported and marketed was determined by means of Disperse Blue CVG - which is one of the dyes contained in the finished product using the same finishing steps as for the final formulation - to be 150.8 µm with a 90% range of 56.35 to 245 µm.
Additional information
The particle size of the dedusted dye product of Disperse Blue CVG, which is part of the dye product of the test item as imported and marketed, was determined at its production site by laser diffraction (light scattering).
The median particle size L50(D (v, 0.5): 50 % of particle volume or particle mass with lower particle diameter) deduced from these distributions are: L50 = 150.8 µm
The particle size L10(D (v, 0.1): 10 % of particle volume or particle mass with lower particle diameter) deduced from these distributions are: L10= 56.35 µm
The particle size L90(D (v, 0.9): 90 % of particle volume or particle mass with lower particle diameter) deduced from these distributions are: L90= 245 µm
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
