Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The dustiness of 4,4'-diamino[1,1'-bianthracene]-9,9',10,10'-tetraone was determined according to EN15051-2. The inhalable, thoracic and respirable dustiness were determined as 'high'.
Executive summary:

The dustiness of 4,4'-diamino[1,1'-bianthracene]-9,9',10,10'-tetraone was determined according to EN15051-2. The inhalable, thoracic and respirable dustiness mas fractions were determined as 14513 mg/kg, 6209 mg/kg and 4119 mg/kg, respectively. This corresponded to categorisation as high dustiness for all fractions.
