PINK introduces an open innovation platform for the industry, offering computational approaches for AdMas&Chems development, safety assessment, and AI techniques for data searches. The project translates industrial requirements and market demands into decision support and addresses training needs. It culminates in an integrated PINKISH Platform, providing decision support through data visualization and Generative AI technologies, while also developing an advanced Interoperability Framework for equitable information exchange.

INSIGHT will establish an innovative framework for the mechanistic impact assessment of chemicals and materials. This framework will use a multi-layered approach that integrates data, models, and impact outcome pathway graphs, providing user-friendly FAIR-data and computational tools. It aims to transform sustainability and safety assessments and make advanced AI methods accessible for Safe and Sustainable by Design approaches.

MACRAMÉ will develop methodologies applicable to AdMas. It will detect, characterize and quantify AdMas during their processing and product life cycle, including recycling/end-of-life, to assess the resulting impact on health and the environment. It will prepare for standardization and harmonization, as well as regulatory validation, the wide-spread applicability and application of the developed test and characterisation methods.

CHIASMA uses innovative in vitro and in silico methods to develop a new framework for assessing safety and sustainability by design. Based on next-generation safety assessment principles, this framework will predict regulatory endpoints and long-term safety while integrating life-cycle impact analysis. The project addresses different chemical groups, including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and nanopesticides, with a focus on socio-economic aspects and regulatory integration.

BIO-SUSHY will develop innovative repellent organic and hybrid coatings, harnessing bio-based additives for advanced functionalization as an alternative to PFASs-based coatings. A safe-and-sustainable-by-design strategy will be powered by physics-based and data-driven modelling tools for predicting the repellent properties of coating surfaces and the leaching mechanisms of the materials. A life-cycle assessment will determine the economic and environmental impacts along the value chains of the case studies considered for the validation of the BIO-SUSHY coating materials.

NanoCommons will deliver a sustainable and openly accessible nanoinformatics framework (knowledgebase and integrated computational tools, supported by expert advice, data interpretation and training), for assessment of the risks of nano materials, their products and their formulations. NanoCommons combines Joint Research Activities to implement the nanoinformatics Knowledge Commons, Networking Activities to facilitate engagement with the research community, industry and regulators, and provision of funded Access to the nanoinformatics tools via funded calls for Transnational Access.
