State Regulation of Nanotechnology: What's Next?

No State has been more active than California in evaluating the need to regulate nanoscale products. With one data call-in for carbon nanotubes under its belt, what have we learned from the California initiative? What materials are in line for review? What are the benefits to participating in the DTSC process or other voluntary initiatives? What are the legislators and ... Read More »

RFID: Nanotechnology Watch

In the near future, bad environments could produce good results. Whether it’s a bar code label or an RFID tag, the extreme temperature fluctuations, vibration, acceleration/deceleration, abrasion and overall rough handling containers can suffer in transit usually results in only one thing: damage to the label or tag. But in the future, rough handling might actually prove to be an ... Read More »
