1st NMF inter-laboratory comparison

Le processus d’identification des nanomatériaux repose sur la détermination de la distribution de tailles en nombre des particules constitutives formant la substance. Les méthodes de microscopie électronique font à ce jour référence mais peuvent se révéler couteuses, tout particulièrement lorsque les échantillons s’avèrent polydispersés ou se présentent sous la forme d’agrégats. Au-delà de l’harmonisation des protocoles de préparation d’échantillon ou d’obtention dâ...

NMF Webinar - 03/04/25

Nanomaterials are a tremendous source of innovation and are used in many industrial sectors. However, their use may be limited by a lack of accessibility, validation or harmonization of methods for characterizing their key physico-chemical properties, as required by current regulations (R-Nano, REACh). In order to meet these challenges, the NanoMesureFrance association was created in September 2022 through a...
