Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Particle size distribution (Granulometry)

Currently viewing:

Administrative data

Endpoint:
particle size distribution (granulometry)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
test procedure in accordance with national standard methods with acceptable restrictions
Remarks:
According to appendix R7-1 of ECHA Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment multiple techniques should be applied to investigate phys. chem. properties of particulates, although different measurement methods may not provide comparable results. Laser diffraction is the well experienced standard procedure for pigments to determine particle size distribution of the pigment as it is manufactured and delivered.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Given standard deviation is based on the general experience with the method and pigments. The estimated values are typical standard deviations for pigments:

D10: 4 % of D10 (minimum value 0.05 µm)

D50: 13 % of D50 (minimum value 0.1 µm)

D90: 29 % of D90 - D50

A monomodal particle size distribution was observed.
