Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test substance was determined to have d(0.1), d(0.5) and d(0.9) values of 31, 55 and 96 μm, respectively.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the particle size distribution of the test substance.


The particle size distribution was assessed using a technique based on laser diffraction in accordance with CIPAC MT 187.


The test substance was determined to have d(0.1), d(0.5) and d(0.9) values of 31, 55 and 96 μm, respectively.


d(0.1) is the diameter where 90% of the distribution is above and 10% is below.


d(0.5) is the diameter where 50% of the distribution is above and 50% is below. The is referred to as the Mass Median Diameter (MMD).


d(0.9) is the diameter where 10% of the distribution is above and 90% is below.
