Safety and Potential Health Risks
|
 |
Health risks caused by nanoparticulate materials are suspected but until now not unequivocal proven. |
|
Because of the potential risk, nanoparticles should be handled with extreme care! |
|
Aerosols of nanoparticles, similarly like aerosols emitted by Diesel engines, should be avoided strictly. |
|
Nanoparticulate metals, carbides, nitrides, etc. are potentially pyrophoric. Some of these materials must be handled in inert atmosphere. |
