Individual Results

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

 

Test series 1 :

D10:      14.1 µm               

D50:      37.8 µm (Median diameter)

D90:      81.4 µm               

 

Test series 2 :

D10:      14.2 µm               

D50:      37.6 µm (Median diameter)

D90:      80.1 µm               

 

Average:

D10:      14.2 µm

D50:      37.7 µm (Median diameter)

D90:      80.8 µm

Final Results

The test item AF-378 has a median particle size of D50 = 37.7 µm, which was determined by laser diffraction measurement according to OECD Test Guideline 110 (1981), ISO 13320 (2009) and EPA OCSPP Guideline 830.7520 (1996).
