This study utilized grab and strip testing methods to examine the relationship between three weave structures—plain, twill, satin—and their tensile strengths in both warp weft directions. In addition, microplastic fiber (MPF) emissions from these structures were quantified at different states of laundry process using filtration microscopy. The tests revealed that twill- satin-woven fabrics exhibited higher direction compared orientation. contrast, plain structure showed similar During washing machine, MPF first drainage highest regardless structure. Moreover, satin pattern released most MPFs among common 5054 particles/L. also had weakest strength 3.1 N/cm2 evaluated. results demonstrated a strong inverse correlation weaker (warp or weft) emissions. Among investigated, twill lowest emission, followed by weave, with fabric emitting levels.

Micro(nano)plastics: an Emerging Burden for Human Health

International Journal of Biological Sciences, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 20(14), С. 5779 - 5792

The escalation of plastic pollution represents a global environmental and health problem. Important toxic effects have been attributed to the increasing diffusion microplastics (MPs) nanoplastics (NPs) derived from degradation plastics. These particles ubiquitously observed in environment, with humans being continuously exposed via ingestion, inhalation skin contact. Nonetheless, cellular homeostasis imbalance induced by micro- nano- plastics (MNPs) human has only recently shown, while most evidence molecular mechanisms studies
