To what degree does REACH (the new European law on chemicals) cover nanotechnology?
Abstract:
The new European law on chemicals, REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals), entered into force on 1 June 2007.
A new report (pdf download; 934 KB) summarizes the contents of an event entitled "NIA Masterclass & Workshop: Micromega - REACH for Nanomaterials", held in London on May 9, 2007. The event was organised by the Nanotechnology Industries Association (NIA) and involved experts in legal and managerial aspects of the EC regulation on REACH.
