Summary

This ASTM standard practice describes procedures for creating reference microplastic samples to calibrate and validate detection methods in water matrices with varying levels of suspended solids. Standardized reference materials are essential for ensuring that different labs and methods produce comparable, reliable results. Consistent calibration tools are a prerequisite for building a credible global dataset on microplastic contamination in water.

Significance and Use 5.1 These procedures can be used to generate microplastic particles as a simulation of microplastic particles found in the natural environment. Suitable uses may include evaluation of microplastic detection and imaging methods. Use of
