Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EN 15051-2 (Workplace exposure. Measurement of the dustiness of bulk materials - Rotating drum method)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of method:
rotating cylinder
Sampling:
Sample amount: 15 g
Each sample has been divided in eight equal lots using a rotary riffler, this rotary riffler is especially designed to minimize the loss of any fine dust. One of these divided lots has been used for determining the bulk density and the moisture content.

Moisture content: 1.71 %

Bulk density: 399.2 kg m-3

It can be concluded based on the RSD values of the inhalable and thoracic fractions (≤15 %) that the dustiness potentials of the independent triplicates are highly repeatable. The higher RSD for the respirable fraction is caused by the lower absolute masses of the dust fractions or inhomogeneity of the samples.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Lumière Pink SM 0245N is classified as high for all three fractions (Inhalable dustiness, Thoracic dustiness, Respirable dustiness)
Executive summary:

The dustiness of Lumière Pink SM 0245N was determined by EN 15051 - Rotating drum (method 2)
