Combined Effects of Fe/Al Oxyhydroxide Coating and pH on Polystyrene Nanoplastic Transport in Saturated Sand Media

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers found that soil pH and iron or aluminum mineral coatings on sand grains strongly control how far nanoplastics travel through the ground, with acidic, mineral-rich conditions trapping particles more effectively — findings that could help predict nanoplastic contamination of groundwater.

Aggregation of positively charged polystyrene nanoplastics in soil–root systems

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers showed that positively charged polystyrene nanoplastics aggregate in the presence of plant root exudates and soil leachate while negatively charged nanoplastics remain stable and mobile, driven by organic acid adsorption onto nanoparticle surfaces. Understanding nanoplastic charge-dependent behavior in soil-root systems is crucial for assessing how nanoplastics are taken up by crops and may enter the human food supply.
