Abstract: Polyolefin-coated fertilizers, widely used in Japanese agriculture, were analyzed to identify characteristic additives that could serve as source-specific markers for secondary microplastic originating from them. Four types of polyolefin-based samples were examined, revealing polyethylene as… read more here.
