Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
particle size distribution (granulometry)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
October 2017 - April 2018
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 13320 (Particle size analysis - Laser diffraction methods)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
For particles <50 µm, the MIE model is recommended for calculation of the particle size. However, since the refractive index was not known, the Fraunhofer model was used.
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
Laser scattering/diffraction
Type of particle tested:
agglomerate
Type of distribution:
volumetric distribution
