Summary
Poly(alkyl acrylate)-based adhesive coatings were applied to stainless-steel filters to enhance microplastic capture efficiency through adsorption in addition to physical size exclusion. The adhesive-coated filters showed improved microplastic removal rates compared to uncoated filters across a range of particle sizes and types.
Poly(alkyl acrylate)-based adhesives are used as coatings for stainless-steel filters to enhance microplastic removal efficiencies via adsorption.
