270.94 µm
Remarks on result:
other: average of 5 runs, result is calculated from the entirety of data captured in each run and is not a simple arithmetic mean (% STDV MMAD=1.52)(migrated from fields under 'Mass median diameter' as D50 percentile. No source field for Standard deviation.)

Any other information on results incl. tables

1.76% by volume of sample was seen to be < 10.00 µm.

Coefficient of variation (cv) for d50 is less than 3% (1.52%); cv for d10 and d90 are less than 5% (0.31% and 3.31%, respectively). Thus, repeatability of the characteristic particles in the size distribution are within the acceptable limits as per the ISO 13320-1 test standard.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Using the laser diffraction test ('wet' small volume dispersion system), the Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD) of SX-1 was determined to be 270.94 µm.

1.76% by volume of sample was seen to be < 10.00 µm.
