Sources, Characteristics, Environmental Impact, and Sustainable Remediation of Synthetic Microfiber
Summary
Researchers found that synthetic microfibers — tiny strands shed from clothing and textiles — are now detectable in virtually every part of the natural environment, reviewing their sources, physical properties, and environmental impact to better understand how to address this pervasive form of plastic pollution.
In recent times, particles of synthetic microfibers have been ubiquitously noticed in a broad range of shapes, sizes, polymers, and also concentrations in the various segments of our natural environment. Research on environmental occurrence, physicochemical...
