What Are the Limitations of EN 166 in Nanotechnology?
While EN 166 provides a robust framework for eye protection, it has some limitations when it comes to nanotechnology applications:
The standard may not account for the unique properties and behaviors of nanoparticles, such as their ability to penetrate materials. There is limited focus on the long-term exposure effects of nanoparticles on the eyes. It does not address the need for specialized coatings or materials that can repel nanoparticles.
