Any other information on results incl. tables
The number-based concentration of particles with sizes below 100 nm (smallest feret diameter) is 99%. The median (D50) of the particle size is 43,3 nm.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- - The particles have a median aspect ratio of 1,8:1
- The shape is “orthorhombic”. The material is assigned to the “multimodal” shape category.
- The number-based concentration of particles with sizes below 100 nm (smallest feret diameter) is 99%. The median (D50) of the particle size is 43,3 nm.
The material is therefore classified as “nano” according to the definition of nanomaterial 2011/696/EU.
