Original Abstract

Exposure of plastics to natural conditions and influences, such as light and heat, organisms, mechanical abrasion, etc., can cause degradation of plastics and the formation of microplastics and nanoplastics. These particles can subsequently contaminate the environment, to interact with all its components on their surface and release toxic substances used for their production into the environment. The aim of this study was to test cryomilling as a simple physical method for preparation of PET microplastics in laboratory.
