An increasing number of aerogels as nanostructured highly porous materials are entering the market in every day products, with an attractive portfolio of properties for emerging applications ranging from health care and leisure to electronics, cosmetics, energy, agriculture, food and environmental. However, the novelty in properties and forms of aerogels makes the development of a legislative framework particularly challenging for ensuring the safe development and use of nano-enabled products. The presented safety regulatory Compendium intends to share knowledge with the international aerogels community, as well as end-users and stakeholders, on the regulatory and safe handling procedures, as best safety practices, to be followed during the production process, handling, transport and end-use of aerogel-based formulations to mitigate human and environmental risks considering lack of data availability for this purpose in general.
越来越多作为纳米结构高孔隙率材料的气凝胶正在进入日常用品市场，它们具有一系列吸引人的特性，适用于从医疗保健、休闲到电子、化妆品、能源、农业、食品和环境等新兴应用。然而，气凝胶在性质和形式上的新颖性使得制定立法框架以确保纳米产品的安全开发和使用极具挑战性。本安全监管纲要旨在与国际气凝胶界以及终端用户和利益相关者分享有关监管和安全处理程序的知识，作为最佳安全实践，在基于气凝胶的配方产品的生产过程、处理、运输和最终使用过程中应遵循这些程序，以减轻人类和环境风险，因为总体上缺乏这方面的数据。
