Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The median particle size D50 (50 % of particle volume with lower particle diameter) deduced from these distributions are:

1st test series: D50 = 8.37 µm

2nd test series: D50 = 8.02 µm

The average of the median particle size D50 was 8.2 µm

 

The particle size D10 (10 % of particle volume with lower particle diameter) deduced from these distributions are:

1st test series: D10 = 1.58 µm

2nd test series: D10 = 1.50 µm

The average of the particle size D10 was 1.5 µm

 

The particle size D90 (90 % of particle volume with lower particle diameter) deduced from these distributions are:

1st test series:D90 = 79.27 µm

2ndtest series: D90 = 71.15 µm

The average of the particle size D90 was 75.2 µm
