Nanomaterial safety and risk assessment
4 European H2020 organizations list this as part of their work — 3 as their primary capability.
Most active in this area
- BUNDESANSTALT FUER MATERIALFORSCHUNG UND -PRUEFUNG
Germany's federal materials research and safety testing institute, specializing in nanomaterial risk assessment, advanced imaging, and hydrogen storage safety validation.
“Sustained engagement from NanoCytox (2015) through EC4SafeNano, ACEnano, NanoSolveIT, NANORIGO, PlasticsFatE, and POLYRISK, covering characterization, toxicology, and governance frameworks.”
PrimaryDE34 projects - STIFTELSEN CHALMERS INDUSTRITEKNIK
Swedish research foundation bridging graphene science, additive manufacturing, and nanomaterial safety from lab to industrial pilot production.
“SAbyNA and HARMLESS projects address safe-by-design approaches, hazard/exposure assessment tools, and regulatory compliance for nano-enabled products.”
SMESE11 projects - Nouryon PULP AND PERFORMANCE CHEMICALS AB
Swedish specialty chemicals company contributing industrial nanomaterial production expertise and nano-safety validation to European research consortia.
“Core contributor to GRACIOUS (grouping/read-across frameworks), SAbyNA (safe-by-design guidance for industry), and HARMLESS (intelligent testing for high aspect ratio materials).”
PrimarySE7 projects - NATIONAL CENTER FOR NANOSCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
Beijing-based nanoscience center specializing in nanomaterial safety assessment, multi-scale modelling, and safe-by-design strategies within European research consortia.
“All four projects (ACEnano, NanoInformaTIX, SAFE-N-MEDTECH, SUNSHINE) focus on safety characterization, toxicity, or safe-by-design approaches for nanomaterials.”
