The SCCS scientific advice on the safety of nanomaterials in cosmetics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The Cosmetic Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 specifically covers the risk of nanomaterials used in cosmetic products. If there are concerns regarding the safety of a nanomaterial, the European Commission refers it to the SCCS for a scientific opinion. The Commission mandated the SCCS to identify the scientific basis for safety concerns that could be used as a basis for identifying and prioritising nanomaterials for safety assessment, and to ...

Physicochemical characterization of nanomaterials Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Many methods have been used for evaluating physicochemical properties of nanomaterials (NMs). Characterization of nanoparticles (NPs) includes the determination not only of size and shape but also polymorph, crystal structure, electronic structure, surface properties, purity, stability, which are relevant to their physiochemical interactions with their environment. These methods include techniques such as X-ray spectroscopy, fluorescence ...
