International Organisation for Standa...
Led by TC 229, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is currently undertaking standardisation in the field of nanotechnologies that includes either or both of the following:
Utilising the properties of nanoscale materials that differ from the properties of individual atoms, molecules, and bulk matter, to create improved materials, devices, and systems that exploit these new properties.
Specific tasks of ISO TC 229 include developing standards for: terminology and nomenclature; metrology and instrumentation, including specifications for reference materials; test methodologies; modelling and simulations; and science-based health, safety, and environmental practices.
