Towards mapping nanoplastic degradation with the ReactorAFM/STM

Summary

This work explored the use of ReactorAFM/STM — an advanced atomic-force and scanning tunneling microscopy technique — to map how nanoplastics break down at the nanoscale level. Developing tools to directly observe nanoplastic degradation is essential for understanding how long these particles persist in the environment and what byproducts they release.
