- Conclusions:
- The distribution of particle size for the test item was determined to be: d10 = 34.006 µm, d50 = 167.260 µm, and d90 = 494.740 µm.
- Executive summary:
The determination of particle size distribution for the test item was carried out in accordance with the method CIPAC MT 187 ( ISO 13320:2020) and following the Principles of GLP. The test was performed using Coulter LS 13 320 with ULM (Universal Liquid Model).A suspension of the test item of the adequate concentration was passed through a laser. The light scattered by the particles at various angles was measured by a multi-element detector and numerical values relating to the scattering pattern were then recorded for subsequent analysis. The percentiles for particle size distribution are: d10= 34.006 µm, d50= 167.260 µm, and d90= 494.740 µm. The mass moment mean (De Brouckere Mean Diameter) of the tested material is determined to be 224.440 µm.
