Executive summary:

The particle size distribution of the test item was assessed via laser diffraction with a Malvern device. The test was performed similar to ISO 13320. It was observed, that the particles have the following sizes and are not existing as nanomaterial:


d10: 234.527 µm


d50: 574.311 µm


d90: 1095.964 µm.
