Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 granulometry of a representative sample of zinc bis [12-hydroxyoctadecanoate] is summarized as follows (Reichwald, 2009):
D10 = 0.7 µm
D50 = 8.4 µm
D90 = 38.9 µm
Dustiness (Parr, 2012; Grewe, 2012):
total: 193.85 mg/g
MMAD1 = 6.24 µm, GSD1 = 2.09, p1= 0.35
MMAD2 = 32.73 µm, GSD2 = 1.62, p2= 0.65
Estimation of desposited dust fractions in the human respiratory tract:
Head (ET): 55.6%
Tracheobronchial (TB): 0.7%
Pulmonary (PU): 1.7%
Additional information
The D10, D50 and D90 of the particle size distribution of a representative test material are 0.74 µm, 8.44 µm and 38.9 µm, respectively. The total dustiness (airborne fraction) was determined according to method DIN 55992-1:2006 using a modified Heubach dust meter. Total dustiness is 193.85 mg/g. MMAD 1 of the total dustiness fraction is 6.24 µm (GSD 1: 2.09). MMAD 2 of the total dustiness fraction is 32.73 µm (GSD 2: 1.62).
These were used as distribution parameters for the MPPD model enabling an estimation of deposited dust fractions in the human respiratory tract: These fractions were estimated as follows:Head (ET): 55.6%
Tracheobronchial (TB): 0.7%
Pulmonary (PU): 1.7%
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.
