BS ISO 13317-4:2014

This standard BS ISO 13317-4:2014 Determination of particle size distribution by gravitational liquid sedimentation methods is classified in these ICS categories:

• 19.120 Particle size analysis. Sieving

This part of ISO 13317 specifies the method for the determination of particle size distribution by the mass of particles settling under gravity in liquid. This method is based on a direct mass measurement and gives the mass distribution of equivalent spherical particle diameter. Typically, the gravitational liquid sedimentation method applies to samples in the 1 μm to 100 μm size range and where the sedimentation condition for particle Reynolds number less than 0,25 is satisfied.
