What are the Key Areas Covered by Nanotechnology Standards?
Nanotechnology standards cover a wide range of areas, including:
1. Terminology and Nomenclature: Establishing a common language and definitions for nanomaterials and nanotechnologies. 2. Measurement and Characterization: Standard methods for measuring and characterizing the properties of nanomaterials. 3. Health, Safety, and Environmental Aspects: Guidelines for assessing and managing the risks associated with nanomaterials. 4. Material Specifications: Standards specifying the composition, purity, and properties of nanomaterials. 5. Performance Standards: Criteria for evaluating the performance of nanotechnology products and devices.
