What is ISO/TS 80004‑6 about?
ISO/TS 80004‑6 is the sixth part of the multi-series standard on nanotechnologies. ISO/TS 80004‑6 defines terms related to the characterization of nano-objects in the field of nanotechnologies.
ISO/TS 80004‑6 is intended to facilitate communication between organizations and individuals in research, industry and other interested parties and those who interact with them.
Who is ISO/TS 80004‑6 for?
ISO/TS 80004‑6 on vocabulary of nano-object characterization is useful for: 
- Materials scientists
- Biologists
- Chemists
- Physicists
- Research institutions and laboratories
Why should you use ISO/TS 80004‑6?
Measurement and instrumentation techniques have effectively opened the door to modern nanotechnology. Characterisation is key to understanding the properties and function of all nanoobjects.
Nano-object characterization involves interactions between people with different backgrounds and from different fields.
ISO/TS 80004‑6 is intended to help you serve as a starting reference for the vocabulary that underpins measurement and characterization efforts in the field of nanotechnologies. The guidance provided in this standard would let you facilitate an effective and technically sound communication system between organisations and individuals.
What’s changed since the last update?
PD CEN ISO/TS 80004‑6:2021 supersedes PD CEN ISO/TS 80004‑6:2015, which is withdrawn.
This second edition PD CEN ISO/TS 80004‑6:2021 replaces the first edition ISO/TS 80004-6:2013, which has been technically revised throughout.
