  • So… plastic? It doesn’t take anything special for plastics to shed microscopic particulates. “Fusing” microplastics is also literally how larger plastic objects are made, basically always unless there’s an actual polymerization stage involved. Thermoplastics are basically always made as plastic pellets long before they’re made in to final products.

    All that is to say… plastics of any type equate to microplastics being around. The bigger question is how bio-accessible are the microplastics?
