Summary

This is a supporting dataset (not a primary research paper) for a review article examining plastic use in the construction sector and circular economy solutions to reduce microplastic pollution from buildings and built infrastructure.

The dataset supports the data presented in the article “From plastic use in the construction and built environment to state-of-the-art circular economy solutions to combat microplastic pollution” (https://doi.org/10.1186/s12302-025-01228-0). It consists of a single Excel worksheet compiling data on the number of published studies related to microplastics in general and to microplastics originating from the building and construction sector to illustrate the evolution of research attention.
