Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

Preliminary sieving:

The majority of the particles was lower than 100 µm. So the principal sieving was made lower than 100 µm.

Principal sieving:

As the powder was fine and sticky, the particle size distribution was made by laser granulometry.

Particle size distribution by laser diffraction:

Median diameter: 143.872 µm

Mean diameter: 233.977 µm

D(0.9): 409.384 µm
