[Current]Determination of particle size distribution by gravitational liquid sedimentation methods, Part 1: General principles and guidelines
Sets out methods for determining the particle size of particulate materials, typically in the size range 0.5 to 100 µm, by gravitational sedimentation in a liquid. This Standard is identical with and has been reproduced from ISO 13317-1:2001.
