Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction

It is predicted that applications of nanotechnologies may pervade all areas of life. In the areas of

communication, health, manufacturing, materials and knowledge-based technologies, there is a need to

provide industry and research with standardized vocabulary and nomenclature to aid the responsible

development and application of the technologies. It is also essential that regulators such as health and

environmental protection agencies have reliable measurement systems supported by well-founded and

robust standards.

Often in the field of nanotechnologies, naming of materials seen on microscopic images is inspired by the

shape of objects found in everyday life, although the physical size is much smaller. The prefix nano- is

often added to denote the small size of the object. (The prefix nano- is also used in SI units to indicate

−9 −9

10 e.g. 1 nanometre = 10 metre.). Thus, the term “nanoscale” (2.1) has been defined to denote the

length interval approximately from 1 nm to 100 nm.

To create a unitary vocabulary, this part of ISO 80004 encompasses terms used concerning particles

with nanoscale dimensions. The terms in this part of ISO 80004 form part of a larger hierarchy of

terms under development for nanotechnologies. These terms are intended to facilitate communications

between organizations and individuals in industry and those who interact with them.

Objects with one or more external dimensions in the nanoscale can have properties that make them

key components of materials and systems resulting in improved performance over their conventional

counterparts. These nano-objects (2.2) often have properties that are not simple extrapolations of

the properties of their larger form, with these novel properties called emerging, discontinuous or

transformative properties.

The size and shape of nano-objects are often intrinsic to their function, so the description and

measurement of their size and shape are important and must be considered carefully. The three most

basic shapes referred to in this part of ISO 80004 are illustrated in Figure 1. These three simple shapes

represent the main classes of structural dimensionality to help categorize nano-objects. Some other

common shapes are defined in this part of ISO 80004, but a large number of different shapes are possible.

A number of other parameters in addition to size and shape are also intrinsic to the function and phenomena

exhibited by nano-objects. These parameters include composition, morphology, crystalline structure, and

surface features, which can all have a major influence on the key nanoscale phenomena exhibited by nano-

objects. Such phenomena include magnetic, optical, catalytic, electronic, and other properties.

A particular issue concerns nano-objects where one or more external dimensions are larger than the

nanoscale. Potential confusion can occur when one of these dimensions greatly exceeds the nanoscale.

For example, carbon nanotubes can have overall lengths in the millimetre range and are still nano-

objects according to the definitions in this part of ISO 80004. An example of an approach to this issue

is to consider the size or shape at which the health risk from inhalation or other potential routes of

exposure to nano-objects becomes small as an upper size limit for nano-objects.

It is acknowledged that a wide variety of approaches to definitions and classifications are applicable

to particulate material and some of these regimes may also be relevant to nano-objects. Industrial,

regulatory, and scientific domains often use terms such as coarse, fine and ultrafine to denote different

size range fractions of particles (3.1). Thus for airborne particles, ultrafine particles, specified as PM0.1

(PM means “particulate matter”), refer to particles with aerodynamic diameters of 100 nm or less. Fine

particles (PM2.5) refer to particles with aerodynamic diameters of 2,5 µm or less and coarse particles

(PM10) refer to those with aerodynamic diameters of 10 µm or less. These size range fractions are used

by regulators for risk assessment purposes in many contexts, including traffic pollution, volcanic ash,

dust storms, industrial pollution and natural airborne allergens such as pollen.

In this Technical Specification, nano-objects are defined according to their shape as determined

by nanoscale dimensionality. In addition, some types of nano-objects are also defined according to

structural configuration, morphology, form or functionality. It is beyond the scope of this Technical

Specification to consider or recommend specific size, size distribution, or related thresholds for nano-

objects, particularly given the wide variability in size, shape, morphology, composition, and surface

features of nano-objects, with each combination potentially presenting differing implications for

assessments of risk or safety to health or the environment.

There is a hierarchical relationship between many of the different terms in this part of ISO 80004.

Elements of this are shown in Figure 2 to illustrate some of the relationships that exist.
