March saw the first meeting of NIA's new Special Purpose Committee on Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs), chaired by NIA Board Member Ishrat Chaudhuri of Cabot Corporation.
The committee brings together NIA members to develop a coordinated industry voice on CNT-related regulatory developments, while also identifying gaps in the science and methodology underpinning CNT safety assessment. At its inaugural meeting, the group worked through a range of issues relevant to CNT producers and agreed to draw up a priorities list to guide its future programme of work.
Membership is open to all NIA corporate members with an interest in CNT production, use, testing, or assessment. Producers keen to get involved or learn more about NIA's work in this area should contact sean.kelly@niaglobal.com.
