Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposite: Toxicology Impact

Carbon nanotube is an important new type of technological material with numerous advantageous properties. Carbon nanotube nanocomposites have found success in several material science applications. This review actually focused toxicological effects and standards for the use of carbon nanotube nanocomposites. Assessments of toxicological properties of inhaled nanomaterials, skin contacted, and ingested materials have mentioned their toxicity and safe use is warranted. Investigations have shown that the uncertainty of nature, mechanism, and exposure response of carbon nanotube nanocomposites may cause adverse effects. Functionalization and modification of nanoparticles must be concentrated for advance applications and may prevent oxidative stress and inflammation of organs
