Novel hybrid photosensitizers: Photoactive polymer–nanoclay
A new type of hybrid photosensitizers was obtained by efficient adsorption of a photoactive polymer by an organically modified nanoclay. The polymer bore naphthyl and rose bengal chromophores, which absorbed light both in the ultraviolet and visible spectral region. Adsorption of the polymer on nanoclay prevented aggregation of chromophores.

Occupational exposure limits for manufactured nanomaterials, a systematic review [PDF]
The toxicological properties of manufactured nanomaterials (MNMs) can be different from their bulk-material and uncertainty remains about the adverse health effects they may have on humans. Proposals for OELs have been put forward which can be useful for

Incineration of Nanoclay Composites Leads to Byproducts with Reduced Cellular Reactivity
Addition of nanoclays into a polymer matrix leads to nanocomposites with enhanced properties to be used in plastics for food packaging applications. Because of the plastics’ high stored energy value, such nanocomposites make good candidates for disposal ...
