200 Mesh to Micron Conversion
200 mesh refers to the number of mesh holes per inch of the sieve. It is a sieve used for screening fine powders and interval powders. After sieving through a 200 mesh sieve, the powders are divided into two parts: one is the powder above the 200 mesh sieve (It is represented as:
+200 mesh), and the other is the powder below the 200 mesh sieve (It is represented as:
-200 mesh).
Analysis of 200 Mesh to Micron
In theory, 200 mesh corresponds to 74 μm. - 200 mesh means that the majority of powder particles is less than 74 μm. However, due to the different morphologies of powder particles (spherical, irregular, flaky, elliptical, dendritic). This leads to significant differences in the particle size distribution of the screening results. Based on Fushel's experience, if it is a spherical powder with -200 mesh, more than 80% of the powder particles are smaller than 74 μm. If it is irregular powder, only 60% or lower is less than 74 um.
