Executive summary:

A test for determination of particle size distribution of the test item was performed according to the CIPAC MT 187 Particle size analysis by laser diffraction. The whole measuring procedure was repeated six times. The average was computed from resulting values. The value nearest to the average was used as final result of the test.

Median Diameter = 203.9 μm;

D90 = 548.0 μm;

D10 = 8.2 μm
