Polypropylene and polyethylene nanoplastics in water
- Considering the huge amount of plastics, that is produced and thrown away all over the world every day, an increasing part of the society became aware of microplastic and its possible impact on the environment. Polymer particles smaller than 1 µm are called nanoplastic. Due to their small size they form a special group within particulate waste. Their high specific surface makes it easier for them to penetrate tissue and pose potential harm. On the other hand, the size and the chemical structure make it difficult to detect and analyze nanoplastics in nature. Furthermore, the concentrations in environmental samples are very low. Therefore, there is a need for a well-characterized nanoplastic material, that serves as a reference for nanoplastic found in nature.
