An assessment of methods used for the generation and characterization of cryomilled polystyrene micro- and nanoplastic particles

Abstract There is a critical need to generate environmentally relevant microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) to better investigate their behavior in laboratory settings. Environmental MPs are heterogenous in size and shape, unlike monodisperse and uniform microspheres commonly used as surrogate...
