Summary

This study examined how environmental factors including ionic strength, temperature, dissolved organic matter, and clay affect the stability and aggregation of nanoplastics in water, finding that these conditions significantly influence particle behavior. Understanding nanoplastic stability is critical for predicting their fate, transport, and bioavailability in aquatic systems.

Impact of environmental factors such as temperature, dissolved organic matter, ionic strength and clay colloids on the stability of nanoplastics.
