Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- particle size distribution (granulometry)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 16 Oct 2017 to 16 Oct 2017
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO 13320 (Particle size analysis - Laser diffraction methods)
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Principle
The particle size distribution of different pigment sample dispersions was analysed by use of laser diffraction.
Method
- The Sympatec “SUCELL” automated closed loop wet dispersing unit is filled with fresh demineralized water and circulated by a peristaltic pump through a stainless steel flowthrough cuvette back into the water basin.
- The pigment sample is dosed into the “SUCELL” water basin and the dispersion is circulated until a stable readout of about 15% optical density is obtained
- The laser diffraction analysis is started and after completion the sample compartment water basin is emptied, thoroughly cleaned and refilled with fresh demineralized water for the next measurement.
Apparatus
- Sympatec Helos/BF (H1906) laser diffraction apparatus equipped with a “SUCELL” digital dispenser (ID 204, stainless steel flow-through cuvette Küv. 6015 with path length of 2mm) and Windox software version 5.9.00 (see Appendix for illustrations)
- Ultrapure water obtained from a water purification system from Millipore, Model Milli-Q Integral 15, S/N F9NN37849B with Q-POD remote dispenser S/N F9MN26892P - GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- Laser scattering/diffraction
- Type of particle tested:
- other: bulk material
- Type of distribution:
