About

The purpose of this event is to diffuse the knowledge that we have generated regarding the implementation of Safe by Design (SbD) strategies within SbD4Nano project. SbD4Nano develops a novel software infrastructure to foster dialogue and collaboration between actors along the nanotechnology supply chain for a knowledge-driven definition of SbD approaches based on hazard, exposure, product performance and cost criteria.

In this webinar, the SbD4Nano e-Infrastructure will be presented using examples from real case studies. In particular, we will focus on an industrial case study developing photocatalytic, antibacterial, and self-cleaning coatings containing nanomaterials (i.e., sulfur-doped TiO2 NPs) and their critical issues. We will provide an overview of the SbD strategies, based on a surface engineering approach, tested in these materials as well as their impact on the material hazard, release, and functionality.

In addition, our goal is to engage stakeholders to co-create and be a part of our community, giving us insights and sharing knowledge. To achieve this we need your support!
