Low-cost, high-throughput quantification of microplastics released from textile wash tests: Introducing the fibre fragmentation scale
Microplastic fibres are found everywhere that researchers have looked for them, from remote mountains to human lungs. However, data are not yet available to facilitate the design of low-shedding textiles. Effective use of standard test methods could establish the impact of processing variables on te...
