Two test series of 3 measurements each were performed with the test item.

Test series 1

D10: 4.8 µm

D50: 177.8 µm (Median diameter)

D90: 515.4 µm

Test series 2

D10: 4.4 µm

D50: 168.0 µm (Median diameter)

D90: 499.1 µm

Average

D10: 4.6 µm

D50: 172.9 µm (Median diameter)

D90: 507.2 µm

Conclusions:
n-Butyltriphenylphosphonium bromide has a median particle size D50 = 172.9 µm, which was determined by laser diffraction measurement. D10 and D90 are 4.6 and 507.2 µm, respectively.

Description of key information

Median particle size D50 = 172.9 µm

D10, D50 and D90: 4.6, 172.9 and 507.2 µm, respectively.
