The present paper constitutes an approach to nanotechnology from a legal perspective. Different recognized nanomaterial definitions - especially by the European Union and the International Organization for Standardization - are presented and analyzed, with the aim of studying the suitability of the definition given by the Consejo Nacional Asesor de la Red Colombiana de Nanociencia y Nanotecnología (National Advisory Council of the Colombian Network of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology).

Keywords : Technology law; consumer protection; nanomaterial; nanotechnology.
