Handling and Risk Mitigation of Nanoscale Graphene and Related Materials: Some Considerations and Recommendations

Abstract

The purpose of this communication is to put forward some considerations and recommendations while handling nanomaterials, especially graphene and its derivatives. A large graphene sheet is generally stable and inert; thus, graphene and its derivatives are not considered hazardous, but good laboratory practices should be taken seriously for the safe handling and use of such materials. This article provides some insights about nanoscale graphene handling and some important considerations.
