Conclusions:
The mass median aerodynamic diameter of the test material dimanganese trioxide is 38.6 µm.
Executive summary:

The granulometric properties of dimanganese trioxide were analysed by laser diffraction method according to ISO 13320-2009. Therefore, a sample of the test substance dimanganese trioxide was dispersed in water and Fraunhofer approximation was used for calculation of particle size distribution (PSD). The results of the PSD for dimanganese trioxide was as follows:

D (v, 0.1) = 20.4 μm

D (v, 0.5) = 38.6 μm

D (v, 0.9) = 67.0 μm.
