Conclusions:
The particle size distribution of the four preparations was measured to be D10 = 93.574 µm, D50 = 583.221 µm and D90 = 1359.628 µm.
Executive summary:

The particle size distribution of four calcium fluoride preparations were measured.

The mean distribution was D10 = 93.574 µm, D50 = 583.221 µm and D90 = 1359.628 µm.

Conclusions:
The median diameter was determined to be 15.096 µm.
Executive summary:

The particle size distribution was determined for a sample of calcium fluoride. The D10, D50 and D90 were determined to be 4.43, 15.096, 45.848 µm respectively.

Description of key information

Data are provided for a number of sources of calcium fluoride. The median diameter (D50) was found to be in the range of 6.16 - 583.22 µm.

The 3 key studies for this endpoint are the data provided by CILAS, BASF and Derivados Del Fluor. The other 3 results (provided by Alufluor, CILAS and Prayon) are used as supporting studies.
