Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Qualitative assessment
GLP compliance:
no
Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
solid
Form:
powder
Colour:
Orange
Substance type:
organic
Conclusions:
The substance is an orange powder at 20°C and 101325 Pa.

Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
March 17, 2016
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
reference to same study
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Laser light scattering. The test was performed according to the SOP 071 Ed.03 (Hydro 2000S-A) protocol.
The particle size distribution was analyzed using the Mastersizer 2000 tool, which uses the technique of laser diffraction to measure the size of particles. It measures the intensity of light scattered as a laser beam passes through a dispersed particulate sample. This data is then analyzed to calculate the size of the particles that created the scattering pattern.
GLP compliance:
no

Conclusions:
The test substance is a solid at 20°C and 101325 Pa (MMD = 29.777 µm).
Executive summary:

Methods:


The substance has been tested for granulometry by the volumetric distribution. The particle size distribution was analyzed using the Mastersizer 2000 tool, which uses the technique of laser diffraction to measure the size of particles. It measures the intensity of light scattered as a laser beam passes through a dispersed particulate sample. This data is then analyzed to calculate the size of the particles that created the scattering pattern.
