Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study the D50 was determined to be 54.890 µm.
Executive summary:

The particle size distribution of the test material was investigated using methodology broadly equivalent to that of the standardised guideline ISO 13320.

The particle size of the sample was measured by laser diffraction.

Under the conditions of this study the D50 was determined to be 54.890 µm.

Description of key information

Under the conditions of this study the D50 was determined to be 54.890 µm.

Additional information

The particle size distribution of the test material was investigated using methodology broadly equivalent to that of the standardised guideline ISO 13320. The study was awarded a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).

The particle size of the sample was measured by laser diffraction.

Under the conditions of this study the D50 was determined to be 54.890 µm.
