1 comments

HSE is health and Safety. I'm not sure what the 'E' stands for :)
E = Executive [1]

They're considering the possibility that CNTs pose specific health concerns (kind of like asbestos from what I understand), which would create quite a few regulatory changes in both production and usage.
