The Removal of NPs After Accident - How to Avoid Skin Penetration? — •Jonas Schubert1,2 and Max Schnepf1,2 — 1Functional Colloidal Materials, Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research Dresden, 01069 Dresden, Germany — 2Physical Chemistry of Polymer Materials, Technische Universität Dresden, D-01062 Dresden, Germany
In this contribution we present a novel gel that is able to remove NPs from the skin. This is getting more and more important as NPs are frequently used in research as well as in industry. After skin contact some of the NPs are able to penetrate the skin and are then potentially harmful for the human health.[1] Normal soap is insufficient for the removal of NPs. Compared to that, our gel removes the majority of the NPs from the skin.
