Reference
Endpoint:
particle size distribution (granulometry)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
April 22, 2014
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
test procedure in accordance with national standard methods
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The test was performed according to the internal method SOP-STR 071 (Hydro 2000S) corresponding to the Laser light scattering procedure.
The particle size distribution was analyzed using the Mastersizer 2000 tool, which uses the technique of laser diffraction to measure the size of particles. It measures the intensity of light scattered as a laser beam passes through a dispersed particulate sample. This data is then analyzed to calculate the size of the particles that created the scattering pattern.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
Laser scattering/diffraction
Type of distribution:
volumetric distribution
Percentile:
D50
Mean:
ca. 86.256 µm
Remarks on result:
other: Analyzed after 2 minutes of ultrasonic treatment.(migrated from fields under 'Mass median diameter' as D50 percentile. No source field for Standard deviation.)
Percentile:
D10
Mean:
ca. 28.897 µm
Remarks on result:
other: Analyzed after 2 minutes of ultrasonic treatment.
Percentile:
D90
Mean:
ca. 181.774 µm
Remarks on result:
other: Analyzed after 2 minutes of ultrasonic treatment.
Conclusions:
The substance has the Mass Median Diameter of 86.256 µm.
