| description | Modern life and contemporary materials have brought ubiquitous
microplastic particles into our surroundings. Many researchers have focused
their research towards investigating sources, pathways, toxic effects and
mitigation possibilities of microplastic pollution. One of the most abundant
types of microplastics is microplastic fibers, mainly released from synthetic
clothes. This study investigates the possibility of identifying microplastic
fibers released from textiles during the laundry washing cycle by Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Microplastic fibers released from
some types of synthetic clothes during the laundry washing cycle at 40°C
were collected and analyzed. Thanks to FTIR spectroscopy, it has been
proven that a certain amount of microplastics is separated every time
synthetics are washed. |
