nanomaterial definition

nanomaterial means a natural, incidental or manufactured material containing particles in an unbound state or as an aggregate or as an agglomerate and where, for 50 % or more of the particles in the number size distribution, one or more external dimensions is in the size range 1-100 nm;
nanomaterial means an insoluble or biopersistant and intentionally manufactured material with one or more external dimensions, or an internal structure, on the scale from 1 to 100 nm;
nanomaterial means a natural, incidental or manufactured material consisting of solid particles that are present, either on their own or as identifiable constituent particles in aggregates or agglomerates, and where 50 % or more of these particles in the number-based size distribution fulfil at least one of the following conditions:

More Definitions of nanomaterial

nanomaterial means an insoluble or biopersistant and intentionally manufactured material with one or more external dimensions, or an internal structure, on the scale from 1 to 100 nm, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009;
nanomaterial means a natural, incidental or manufactured material containing particles in an unbound state or as an aggregate or as an agglomerate and where, for 50 % or more of the particles in the number size distribution, one or more external dimensions is in the size range 1-100 nm. Fullerenes, graphene flakes and single-wall carbon nanotubes with one or more external dimensions below 1 nm shall also be deemed to be nanomaterials.
nanomaterial means any intentionally produced material that has one or more dimensions of the order of 100 nm or less or is composed of discrete functional parts, either internally or at the surface, many of which have one or more dimensions of the order of 100 nm or less, including structures, agglomerates or aggregates, which may have a size above the order of 100 nm but retain properties that are characteristic to the nanoscale.
nanomaterial means a natural, incidental or manufactured material containing particles, in an unbound state or as an aggregate or as an agglomerate and where, for 50 % or more of the particles in the number size distribution, one or more external dimensions is in the size range 1 nm - 100 nm. In specific cases and where warranted by concerns for the environment, health, safety or competitiveness the number size distribution threshold of 50 % may be replaced by a threshold between 1 and 50 %.‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌
nanomaterial means a natural, incidental or manufactured material containing particles in an unbound state or as an aggregate or as an agglomerate and where, for 50 % or more of the particles in the number size distribution, one or more external dimensions is in the size range 1-100 nm; Fullerenes, graphene flakes and single-wall carbon nanotubes with one or more external dimensions below 1 nm shall also be deemed to be nanomaterials [MDR, Article 2(18)]. Related definitions on ‘particle’, ‘agglomerate’ and ‘aggregate’ are also included in the MDR [Article 2(19-21)]. The definitions on nanomaterial and the related terms were taken from Commission Recommendation 2011/696/EU on the definition of nanomaterials. Guidance on terms and concepts used in the definition can be found in a report from the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre.22

nanomaterial means any intentionally produced material that has one or more dimensions of the order up to 300 nm or is composed of discrete functional parts, either internally or at the surface, many of which have one or more dimensions up to the order of 300 nm, including structures, agglomerates or aggregates, and those which may have a size above the order of 300 nm but retain properties that are characteristic to the nanoscale:
