Microplastics (MPs), measuring less than 5 mm, have been causing environmental concerns in aquatic ecosystems, and work has done indoor environments, where humans spend most of their lives. This finding revealed a diverse range MPs within house dust samples. These encompassed fibres, fragments, foams, pellets films. Due to the ubiquity textile-based items, fibres are common MP. The different colours like black, red, blue, yellow, white brown. study there were substantial differences MP sizes across households. average size was 178.87–3713.99 µm. One hundred eighteen particles identified as MPs. 22 types MPs, shedding light on these materials’ extensive sources applications everyday household items. environments raise about potential human exposure underscore need for further research into health implications. found samples low-density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide, polyvinyl chloride, high-density polyethylene polystyrene.

Hydrolysis/alcoholysis/ammonolysis are considered as viable routes for efficient degradation and recycling of polyethylene terephthalate waste plastic. The possible hydrolysis/alcoholysis/ammonolysis pathways the ethylene dimer were investigated by density functional theory (DFT) method M06/cc-pVDZ. geometric structure optimization frequency calculation various intermediates, transition states products involved in reaction carried out to obtain thermodynamic kinetic parameter values. results show that energy barrier cracking process can be reduced under conditions hydrolysis/alcoholysis/ammonolysis, which makes easier. Additionally, at 298 K 1 atm, total rate constants 1.51 × 10-43 cm3 molecular-1s−1, 1.86 10-41 2.82 10-40 respectively. hydrolysis mainly terephthalic acid glycol; alcoholysis dimethyl ammonolysis include terephthalamide glycol. Furthermore, this study shows Gibbs free change is negatively correlated with temperature an increase enhance spontaneity reaction.
