本文件为分散性建立了一个普遍适用（即非特定应用）的定义。它确定了评估分散性的重要特征，并列举了各种应用中用于表征分散性的方法示例。 本文件适用于将粉末分散成液体连续相，同时将团聚体或絮体的尺寸减小至预期水平，使悬浮液或两种悬浮液的混合物的现有分散固相均匀化，或将悬浮液中的原始连续相交换为另一种的工艺。分散颗粒和表征分散和/或均匀状态的具体方法仅在必要时参考上下文。 本文件适用于各种产品应用中的纳米和微米颗粒。

This document establishes a generally applicable (i.e. not application specific) definition for dispersibility. It identifies significant characteristics for evaluating dispersibility and lists examples of methods used to characterize dispersibility in various applications. This document applies to processes that disperse powders into a liquid continuous phase while reducing the size of agglomerates or flocs down to the intended level, that homogenize an existing dispersed solid phase of a suspension or the mixture of two suspensions, or that exchange the original continuous phase in a suspension for another. Specific methods to disperse particles and to characterize the state of dispersion and/or homogeneity are only referenced, if necessary, for context. This document is applicable to nano- and micro-sized particles across a range of product applications.
