Protection against Low Frequency Electric Fields when grounded
 
Industry: To prevent interception of data from wireless networks, and potentially bugged conference rooms
 
Science and R&D: Shielding of electromagnetic interference (EMI) sensitive facilities and equipment
 
Medicine: Protection against sensitive technical equipment. To guarantee important medical data is derived correctly and will not be altered by EMI
 
Electronic Industry: To reduce induction and interference
 
Underground: Apply to a clean dry degreased surface
 
Further Applications: Schools, nurseries, hotel rooms, hospital rooms
 
Apparent use of Nanotechnology: Carbon Black
Reason for Inclusion:

Carbon Black CAS # 1333-86-4 (< 10 %) listed on Safety Data Sheet

"Due to its particle structure Carbon Black is affected by the current nanotechnology/nanomaterial discussions between many stakeholders, including researchers, regulators, Non-Governmental Organizations and industry." - International Carbon Black Association

"...carbon black is produced from small spherical particles (so-called primary particles or nodules) with sizes in the range of 15–300 nm. These particles melt into particle aggregates that are 85–500 nm in aerodynamic diameter..." - DaNa 2.0 Information about nanomaterials and their safety assessment
