Microplastics are a major environmental issue. In marine systems, these break down into small fragments that may lodge within organisms, but they behave as vectors for chemicals when pollutants such as metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), pes...

Extracting the microscopic parameters of a porous material is a complex task, and attempts have been made to develop models that can simulate their characteristics, gathering the least amount of information possible. As a case in point, tests to evaluate...
