2. Select
Interpolation > Size Interpolation
on the Run Menu bar.
3.
In the Size Interpolation window:
a. In the Interpolation Type pane, select Size to or to Size.
•
Select Size to if you want to create interpolation points based on particle diameter size
(that is, particle diameters define bin edges). You can select up to nine statistics to
display based on particle size interpolation points
• Select to Size if you want to create interpolation points based on the statistic you select
in the Interpolation Type pane (Number, Volume, Surface Area, %, and /mL). You can
select only one statistical interpolation point to correlate to particle size.
b. Select one or more of these options: Number, Volume, and/or Surface Area, and select %
and/or /mL for each selected interpolation type. If you are displaying statistics to Size, you
can only select one option.
c.
Select Under (<), Over (>), or (if you selected Size to), Differential.
d. In the Interpolation Points pane:
•
To add an interpolation point, enter the new point in the field and click

If you select... The columns will display...
Under (<) Statistical results below the interpolation point. The
interpolation point becomes the upper edge of the bin.
Over (>) Statistical results above the interpolation point. The
interpolation point becomes the lower edge of the bin.
Differential The number, volume, or surface area of particles between
interpolation points.
