Notes. 

(1)

AmCr stands for amorphous carbon of Rouleau & Martin (1991) and SiCp for silicon carbide of Pégourié (1988);

(2)

grain size distribution as described by Mathis et al. (1977);

(3)

assuming a dust grain bulk density ρs = 1.85 g cm-3 (Rouleau & Martin 1991) and a gas-to-dust mass ratio rgd = 590 (Schöier et al. 2005).
