About this document
Rethinking Nanomaterial Regulations by toyito20 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the challenges with defining nanomaterials for regulatory purposes. It argues that a strict size-based definition is insufficient and that attributes like shape, chemistry and context need to be considered. Flexible, evidence-based and adaptive regulations that can change over time are preferable to categorical definitions. The US is moving in the right direction by focusing on novel properties instead of rigid size cutoffs, but more research is still needed.
