Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The L10 D (v, 0.1) was determined to be 1.68 µm, the L50 D (v, 0.5) was determined to be 13.99 µm and the L90 D (v, 0.9) was determined to be 64.70 µm.

Executive summary:

The particle size distribution was determined using the laser diffraction method with dry dispersion according to CIPAC MT 187. The dispersing energy was adjusted to 4.0 bar.

Two measurements have been performed. The L10 D (v, 0.1) was determined to be 1.68 µm, the L50 D (v, 0.5) was determined to be 13.99 µm and the L90 D (v, 0.9) was determined to be 64.70 µm.
