Photochemical weathering and eco-corona formation through natural organic matter (NOM) adsorption play vital roles in the aggregation tendencies of nanoplastics (NPs) aquatic environments. However, it remains unclear how photochemical alters patterns NOM conformation eco-corona, subsequently affecting NPs. This study examined effect Suwannee River on kinetics pristine photoaged polystyrene (PS) NPs monovalent electrolyte solutions. The results showed that influenced which, turn, determined NP stability presence NOM. Hydrophobic components predominantly bound to hydrophobic π–π interactions, extended hydrophilic segments water hindered via steric repulsion. Conversely, hydrogen bonding facilitated binding these multiple NPs, thereby destabilizing them polymer bridging. Additionally, stabilization destabilization capacities increased with its concentration molecular weight. These findings shed light role weathered offering new perspectives environmental colloidal chemistry fate complex

The widespread presence of plastic debris in marine ecosystems was first highlighted as a serious concern the United Nations Convention on Law Sea (UNCLOS) and 1972 London Convention. This realization identified pollution one major global environmental issues. Majorities are neither recycled nor incinerated, result, it eventually makes its way into lakes, rivers, oceans. Analysis water sediment worldwide indicates that microplastics nanoplastic ubiquitous soils, freshwater, ecosystems. Microplastic nanoplastics distributed throughout environments via processes such biofouling chemical leaching, contaminating both pelagic benthic species. Despite growing recognition hazards posed by nanoplastics, regulatory efforts remain hampered limited understanding their broader ecological impacts, particularly how diverse factors translate population declines ecosystem disruptions. review examines pathways microplastic pollution, interactions with other stressors climate change effects food webs. highlights urgent need for further research behavior fate which degradation product microplastics, owing to nano size they pose additional risks, unique properties, potential impacts. Studies have demonstrated smaller more toxic than larger microplastics. Additionally, serve vectors contaminants heavy metals, exacerbating toxicity. They also translocate through chains, posing health risks. While evidence impact continues grow, chronic toxicity remains poorly understood, emphasizing research, at cellular level, fully understand human health. concludes call standardized measurement methods, effective mitigation strategies, enhanced international cooperation combat this escalating threat. Future should prioritize complex between pollutants, ecosystems, ultimate goal developing holistic approaches manage mitigate pollution.

The fate of ubiquitous microplastics (MPs) is largely influenced by dissolved organic matter (DOM) in aquatic environments, which has garnered significant attention. reactivity DOM reported to be greatly regulated molecular weights (MWs), yet little known about the effects different MW on MP aging. Here, aging behavior polystyrene MPs (PSMPs) presence fulvic acids (FAs) and humic (HAs) was systematically investigated. Under ultraviolet (UV) illumination, O/C PSMPs aged for 96 h surged from 0.008 0.146 lower FA (FA<1kDa) treatment, suggesting PSMP However, exhibited a stronger effect facilitating photoaging than HA, can attributed fact that FA<1kDa contains more quinone phenolic moieties, demonstrating higher redox capacity. Meanwhile, compared other fractions, actively involved increase reactive species yields 50–290%, including •OH, plays key role photoaging, contributed 25% electron-donating capacity (EDC). This study lays theoretical foundation better understanding environmental MPs.
