Any other information on results incl. tables

Given standard deviation is based on the general experience with pigments and the method. The estimated values are typical standard deviations:

D10: 4 % of D10 (minimum value 0.05 µm)

D50: 13 % of D50 (minimum value 0.1 µm)

D90: 29 % of D90 - D50

percentage below 0.10 µm: 0.00 %

percentage below 1.00 µm: 19.63 %

percentage below 15.00 µm: 83.94 %

percentage below 100.00 µm: 98.22 %

percentage below 200.00 µm: 99.50 %
