Smog-Eating Purple Skyscraper

True or false: Accelerated testing of exterior coatings containing nanoparticles, conducted by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, has produced data about the release of nanoparticles into the environment that may help in assessing the health and environmental impacts from these releases.

What organization recently issued recommended exposure limits to carbon nanotubes and nanofibers?

Will newly developed nanomaterials like graphene revolutionize the protective coatings industry in the next 10 years?

I understand that the EPA is reluctant to allow the use of nanoparticles in coatings, due to their tendency to persist in the environment. What is the real risk, and how can the nanocoating industry address it?
