Taiwan participated in ISO/TC229

The 2020 ISO/TC229 Nanotechnologies Plenary Meeting was held on 13 November virtually during COVID-19 (originally in London, UK). Dr. Tsing-Tang Song, on behalf of Asia Nano Forum (ANF), has presented a Preliminary Working Item Proposal (registered as PWI 4971) at WG5 (Products and Applications). ISO/TC229 agreed that this PWI 4971 “Nanotechnologies - Performance Evaluation of Nanosuspension Containing Clay Nanoplates for Quorum Quenching” should proceed to New Work Item Proposal (NWIP) ballot stage, and invited Liaison member ANF to submit the proposal by the end of December 2020, with Dr. Song proposed as Project Leader. This NWIP proposal has also been issued via the ISO/TC229 electronic balloting procedure. The voting will be closed on 5 April 2021.
