Two test series of 3 measurements each were performed. The results were as follows;

Test series 1 (Figure 1):

L10:        47.99 µm

L50:        156.68 µm      (Median diameter)

L90:        307.84 µm

 

Test series 2 (Figure 2):

L10:        49.00 µm

L50:        158.76 µm      (Median diameter)

L90:        309.55 µm

 

Average

L10:        48.49 µm

L50:        157.72 µm      (Median diameter)

L90:        308.70 µm

Conclusions:
The median particle size D50 of the test substance, 4,4 -biphenol was determined to be 158 µm by laser diffraction measurement.
Executive summary:

The particle size distribution of the test substance was determined using OECD 110. The median particle size D50 of the test substance, 4,4 -biphenol was determined to be 158 µm by laser diffraction measurement.
