μm, 250 μm, 500 μm and 2000 μm, nested from bottom to top on the
receiver pan.
Analytical balance Sensitive to 0.1 g (type PM 6100; Mettler-Toledo B.V., Tiel, The
Netherlands)
Sieving apparatus Sieve shaker INCLYNO 1 (Capco Test Equipment Ltd., Suffolk,
United Kingdom)
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
cascade impaction
Type of particle tested:
primary particle
Type of distribution:
mass based distribution

Any other information on results incl. tables

The amount of material retained on the sieves and in the receiver pan was weighed to the nearest

0.1 g, and expressed as percentages of the sample to the nearest 0.1%.
