Tender Details

Nanomaterial Risk Assessment: Refining and Validating Acceptable Variation in Nanoform Characterisers
The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) expects to launch a call for tenders late June/early July 2026, with a deadline to submit offer in September 2026, for the project “Nanomaterial Risk Assessment: Refining and Validating Acceptable Variation in Nanoform Characterisers” The project is meant to follow up to on previous project “Nanomaterial Risk Assessment: A regulatory way forward for sameness and grouping approaches”1 contracted in 2023. In the previous contract, a framework was developed to assess the acceptable variation within each characteriser of a Nanoform (as per Section 2.4 of Annex VI of REACH Regulation). The project aimed at exploring ways to simplify nanoforms registration process and, ultimately, its- associated testing burden. As an outcome, a series of binary decision trees and respective variability threshold were produced, covering each mandatory characteriser. The framework was developed based on a limited set of information covering metallic and carbon-based nanomaterials. The final report as well as the Decision Tree can be found here: https://echa.europa.eu/fi/science/publications-and-reports/reports, so that interested parties can already familiarize themselves with the outcome of the project. The new contract aims at refining the threshold values pre-established and validating it with additional data sets, covering a wider range of chemical types...
