Carbon nanotubes revisited
I'm reading more and more articles about carbon
nanotubes. The most recent being an article
about their use in reinforcing the binding resin
in carbon fiber.
Not one article has discussed health issues.
I know first hand that the human body can
get rid of fiberglass fibers. Scratch enough
and your skin will blister and shed the material.
So what happens when the fiber are nano-scale
and can penetrate individual cells? How does
the human body get rid of them?
What are the long term effects?
