In this research, microfiber release from knitted fabric was analysed with open edge and
edge covered with lock stitch. The main aim of the research is to evaluate the role of fabric …

Microplastics have been detected in several aquatic organisms, especially bivalves such as
clams, oysters, and mussels. To understand the ecotoxicological implication of microplastic …

In recent years, domestic laundry has been recognized as a relevant source of microfiber
(MF) pollution to aquatic environments. Nevertheless, the MF emissions from industrial …

Synthetic microfibers have been identified as the most prevalent type of microplastic in
samples from aquatic, atmospheric, and terrestrial environments across the globe. Apparel …

A criteria-guided workflow was applied to assess the effectiveness of microplastic separation
methods on complex marine biological matrices. Efficacy of four methods (nitric acid, HNO 3 …

Purpose Microfiber is one of the major sources of microplastic emission into the
environment. In recent times, research on microfiber has gained momentum, and research …

The influence of 3, 10 and 50 washing cycles on the properties of cotton fabric and cotton-
polyester blend in plain weave, was investigated in this study. In addition to the analysis of …

The fiber damage during manufacture, use, and service of textiles leads to fragmented fiber
generation. All textiles (natural, regenerated, and synthetic polymer sources) release fiber …

The abrasive wear of textiles during ordinary use and laundering results in fiber damage,
which leads to the generation and release of fragmented fibers (FFs). Ring-spun yarn has a …

Microfiber from textiles is one of the new anthropogenic pollutants which attracted a wide
range of researchers. Domestic laundry, being the most common cause of microfiber release …
