Grant Activity:
A multi-scale risk assessment platform for inhaled carbon nanotubes
Purpose:
This project aims to develop a coherent risk assessment platform to evaluate human respiratory exposure to carbon nanotubes. Compared to the exponential growth of carbon nanotubes technology, capability of inhalation risk assessment is lagging. The project expects to generate new knowledge on the unique role and risk of carbon nanotube geometry. It will develop a new transport model and create a unified risk assessment. The expected outcome is the enhanced risk assessment capability of human exposure to carbon nanotubes, which will provide a significant benefit to the nanotechnology industry through ensuring safety in developing an emergent technology.
