Insight into the effect of natural aging of polystyrene microplastics on the sorption of legacy and emerging per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances in seawater

Microplastics (MPs) are abundant in aquatic environments and due to their small size, surface properties, and strong hydrophobicity, they can easily sorb chemicals, thus potentially acting as pollutant carriers. To date, most studies investigating the sorption of chemicals on MPs have principally fo...
