California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) |
| Summary: |
In January 2009, the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) initiated its chemical information call-in for carbon nanotubes (see report ID 100). January 22, 2010 was the deadline for manufacturers and importers of carbon nanotubes to respond to DTSC's request for toxicity data and other information. Eighteen of twenty-six companies responded. Responses received are published on this website. Most respondents say that they followed standard laboratory practices and NIOSH's nanomaterial safety guidelines. One, Stanford University, has implemented specific nanomaterial safety measures and treats waste containing carbon nanotubes as hazardous. |

| Organization: |
California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) |
| Summary: |
In 2008, the DTSC began a chemical information call-in for carbon nanotubes (see report ID 100). Information was collected on analytical test methods, fate and transport in the environment, and other relevant information from carbon nanotube manufacturers. Pursuant to its previously announced interest in doing so, the DTSC is now expanding the call-in to other chemical classes. This bulletin announces that Bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophtlate (TBPH) and decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5), chosen because of their high production volume and widespread usage, are the subjects of a new call-in. The call-in process will identify available information on these chemicals, potential data gaps, information addressing potential data gaps, other specific information, and new information that may be required to ensure these chemicals can be used safely. |

| Summary: |
The California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC)'s website contains a summary of nanotechnology, the DTSC's reasons for its interest in nanotechnology safety, and current events in California nanotechnology regulation. Previously (see report ID 100), the DTSC had held a chemical information call-in for carbon nanotubes. At that time, the website announced the DTSC's intent to request information regarding analytical test methods, fate and transport in the environment, and other relevant information from manufacturers of carbon nanotubes. As of June 2010, the website contains links to California nanotechnology reports and the DTSC's chemical information call-ins. |

| Country: |
United States of America |
| Organization: |
California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) |
| Summary: |
This letter of inquiry serves to announce that the DTSC is requesting information regarding analytical test methods, fate and transport in the environment, and other relevant information from manufacturers of carbon nanotubes (CNT). Considering their commercial use, lack of data, and recent research on the potential impacts to the environment, workers and the public, the DTSC is implementing this chemical call-in program in order to better protect human health and the environment. Currently, the list includes academic institutions conducting CNT research and those manufacturers who are involved in producing or importing CNT in their chemical form. Although manufacturers who import products containing CNTs have not been included, the list may expand in the future to include product manufacturers. The DTSC will then evaluate this information and build a public record of compliance, with the caveat that trade secret protections can be exercised by the DTSC upon request. A research bibliography will be posted on the DTSC web site which will be updated periodically with the intent that the information will be utilized to support sound science and safety in chemical practices by regulatory agencies, manufacturers, researchers, product developers, and consumers. |
