Nanoplastics are an increasing threat to the ecosystem; however, their mobility in the soil is still underexplored. Against this backdrop, researchers investigated the adsorption and aggregation...
Wear and tear on plastic products releases small to nearly invisible plastic particles, which could impact people's health when consumed or inhaled. To make these particles...
People breathing contaminated air over the course of years are at greater risk of developing numerous diseases. This is thought to be due to highly reactive...
Proof-of-concept work uses unique, safe particles to remove microplastics in a single cycle.
Plastic is everywhere in our daily lives. And much of what we use, such as cutting boards, clothes and cleaning sponges, can expose us to tiny,...
Physicists have created a new computer code that could speed up the design of the complicated magnets that shape the plasma in stellarators, making the systems...
Microplastics have been found almost everywhere that scientists have looked for them. Now these bits of plastic -- from 1 to 62 micrometers long -- have...
