A common European approach to the regulatory testing of nanomaterials (NANOREG)

Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,

The innovative and economic potential of Manufactured Nano Materials (MNMs) is threatened by a limited understanding of the related EHS issues. While toxicity data is continuously becoming available, the relevance to regulators is often unclear or unproven. The shrinking time to market of new MNM drives the need for urgent action by regulators. NANoREG is the first FP7 project to deliver the answe ...

Development of reference methods for hazard identification, risk assessment and LCA of engineered nanomaterials (NANOVALID)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

The growing development, production and use of engineered nanomaterials and associated products will increase exposure of both humans and ecosystems to these new materials. However, current knowledge is still incomplete and established test methods are as yet inappropriate to reliably assess the extent of exposure and risk of materials at the nano-scale. There is an urgent need to develop methods ...

Innovative Material Synergies & Composite Processing Strategies (IMS&CPS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

Mutation of transport industry to carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRC) is now ineluctable in order to reduce our mobility environmental imprint. This sector is at a turn of its conversion from metal to composite, which should impose a radical rethinking of the whole supply chain. Combined developments of materials and matched processes is the main strategy of IMS&CPS project, only such a concert ...
