The use of nanoparticles and nanofillers in materials such as polymer nanocomposites greatly extends their functionality and range of applications. However, the use of nanotechnology poses potential risks to human health and the environment. This book summarises key recent research in this important area. The first part of the book discusses types of nanomaterial, potential mechanisms of toxicity, exposure assessment and sampling. The second part of the book reviews the safety of particular types of nanomaterial including nanolayered silicates, carbon nanotubes and metal oxide nanomaterials.
