    Types and Sources of Microplastics; The Ubiquitous Environment Contaminant: A Review

    ARCHNA RANI

    Journal of Polymer Materials, Vol.39, No.1-2, pp. 17-35, 2022, DOI:10.32381/JPM.2022.39.1-2.2

    Abstract Accumulation of Microplastics (MPs) in diverse ecosystems is a growing global problem of our time. These are entering into the environment directly (micro-sized plastics manufactured purposefully) and by degradation of plastic products. Due to a diverse range of polymers and additives used to manufacture plastic products, the MPs of different chemical compositions are abundant in the environment. A detailed literature survey revealed that MPs -environment interaction is largely governed by these chemicals and other intrinsic properties of MPs viz. shape, size, density, surface charge, etc. The current investigation primarily aims to review different chemical and More >
