Guidance on the implementation of the Commission Recommendation 2022/C 229/01 on the definition of nanomaterial / JRC 2023

ID 19494 | 25.04.2023

A new Recommendation on the definition of ‘nanomaterial’ (2022/C 229/01) was adopted by the European Commission in 2022 to serve different policy, legislative and research purposes when addressing nanomaterials or issues concerning products of nanotechnologies. It is broadly applicable across a wide variety of fields.

This guidance supports the implementation of the nanomaterial definition adopted in the new Recommendation. 

The present guidance gives an overview of the key terms and concepts, provides a decision tree to identify nanomaterials and addresses identification of nanomaterials through measurements for the new Recommendation on the definition of nanomaterial (2022/C 229/01). Furthermore, an Annex listing documentary standards relevant for a harmonised and coherent regulatory implementation of the definition of nanomaterial at European Union and national level was added.
