• Proposition de mini-colloque pour les Journées de la Matière Condensée 2024 à Marseille du 28 au 31 octobre : Physical Chemistry of plastics pollution: detection and analysis of micro- and nano-plastics, degradation mechanisms, interaction with environment and life
  15 May 2024, by IM

  Organisers: Alexandre Merlen (MAPIEM, Toulon), Véronique Lenoble (MIO, Toulon)
  Plastics particles can be found in water (sea and rivers), in soils and in the air and this environmental problematic has led to consider plastic as an emerging pollutant. The resulting products of plastic degradation are going from microparticles (size lower than 5 mm) to nanoparticles (size lower than 1 micrometer) and can extend to potentially volatile and soluble molecules.
  Many studies about this emerging (…)
