Advanced Materials for Clothing and Textile Engineering
Not relevant to microplastics — this is a special issue collection on advanced textile materials and clothing engineering, covering mechanical properties, thermal behaviour, and 3D garment modelling, with no direct microplastic pollution research.
A Review on Advanced Technology for Sustainable Management of Synthetic Microplastic Waste
This review examines how synthetic microfibers released from textiles during manufacturing, washing, and disposal contribute to microplastic pollution. The paper evaluates advanced technologies for capturing and breaking down these microfibers, which are important because textile-derived microplastics are among the most commonly found types in both the environment and human tissues.
Special Issue “Synthesis, Properties and Applications of Polymers”
This special issue introduction reflects on the continuing dominance of plastics in modern materials science, framing the current era as a 'Plastic Age' and contextualizing the collection of polymer synthesis, properties, and applications research within that broader historical frame.
Trends, Problems and Prospects for Textıle Production in Future
This article reviews trends, challenges, and future prospects for the textile industry, including the environmental impact of synthetic fibers. The widespread use of synthetic textiles is a significant source of microplastic fiber pollution entering waterways through laundry washing.
Clothing and Textile Sustainability
This review examines sustainability challenges facing the global clothing and textile industry, covering resource use, chemical pollution, and the growing problem of microfiber release from synthetic textiles. Synthetic garments shed millions of microplastic fibers with every wash, making the textile industry a major contributor to global microplastic pollution.
