Managing Risks of Nanoparticles (MARINA)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,
While there are standard procedures for product life cycle analysis, exposure, hazard, and risk assessment for traditional chemicals, is not yet clear how these procedures need to be modified to address all the novel properties of nanomaterials. There is a need to develop specific reference methods for all the main steps in managing the potential risk of ENM. The aim of MARINA is to develop such ...

Graphene-based Electrodes for Application in Supercapacitors (ElectroGraph)
Date du début: 1 juin 2011, Date de fin: 31 mai 2014,
For vehicle applications, it is desirable to have devices with high energy density, high power density, long cycle and shelf life, and low cost. Supercapacitors are considered one of the newest innovations in the field of electrical energy storage. In hybrid electric vehicle, supercapacitors can be coupled with fuel cells or batteries to deliver the high power needed during acceleration as well as ...

Comprehensive assessment of hazardous effects of engineered nanomaterials on the immune system (NANOMMUNE)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 31 août 2011,
Engineered nanomaterials (ENs) present tremendous opportunities for industrial growth and development, and hold great promise for the enrichment of the lives of citizens, in medicine, electronics, and numerous other areas. However, there are considerable gaps in our knowledge concerning the potential hazardous effects of ENs on human health and the environment. Our EU-US partnership is committed t ...
