What are the Key Steps for Nanomaterials under REACH?
The key steps for complying with REACH for nanomaterials are similar to those for other substances but require additional data specific to their nanoscale nature:
Registration: Manufacturers and importers must provide detailed information on the properties, uses, and safety of the nanomaterial. Evaluation: ECHA evaluates the information submitted to ensure it meets the required standards and identifies any need for further data. Authorization: Certain high-risk substances may require authorization to ensure they are used safely. Restriction: Restrictions may be imposed to limit or ban the use of certain nanomaterials if they pose a significant risk.
