Colloids are particles that have a diameter of between ... critical behaviour that govern the transition from elasticity to plastic flow and macroscopic failure. To understand and design ...

These include chunks of floating plastic waste that break down ... which are in turn composed of multiple particles known as soft dendritic colloids. Such particles have a reputation for being ...

A study out of Hawaii has shown that tissues sampled [recently] had significantly higher concentrations of plastic particles in them than the tissues from just 10 years ago. So while it might not ...

The film "The Colloidal State" explores the concept of colloids, which are materials in a dispersion where small particles of ...

About 10% of the detected plastic particles were microplastics, and the other 90% were nanoplastics. Microplastics are between 5 millimeters to 1 micrometer; nanoplastics are particles less than 1 ...

A group of scientists analyzing global data collected over the past four decades have found a "rapid increase" in ocean plastic pollution since 2005, according to a research article published in ...
