Studying the concentration of polymers in blended microplastics using 2D and 3D Raman mapping

Abstract The combination of different polymers in the form of blended plastics has been used in the plastic industry for a long time. Nevertheless, analyses of microplastics (MPs) have been mainly limited to the study of particles made of single-type polymers. Accordingly, two members of the Polyole...
