Micro and nanoplastics: A deep dive into a global issue
6 Sept 2024Microplastics are miniscule pieces of plastic in the environment, a consequence of global plastic consumption and the plastic pollution this causes. Current research finds that microplastics will also degrade into smaller particles on a nanoscale, called nanoplastics, which measure in the range of 1 to 1000 nm. Find out more about the sources, scale, and consequences of plastic particle pollution, and about the tools from Agilent Technologies that have been developed to combat this global issue.
