desafios do uso ambientalmente sustentável de plásticos

Abstract: Como resultado de sua grande versatilidade e utilização, as matrizes plásticas tornaram-se fundamentais como uma das matérias primas básicas para a revolução tecnológica durante o período pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial. A importância significativa desses "novos" materiais é confirmada, pois muitos pesquisadores em todo o mundo consideram que as camadas sedimentares de plástico como um indicativo do início da Era Antropocênica. Durante todo o período de industrialização, a produção anual de plástico aumentou de men… Show more

“…Discovered during the 1930s and produced on a large scale from the 50-60s, plastics now play an important role in the daily lives of human beings. The properties of these man-made long-chain polymeric materials, such as strength and durability, together with flexibility, thermal and electrical insulation, corrosion resistance, and low cost, have made them important in the production of a wide diversity of items such as clothes, cosmetics, tools, paints, appliances and others [15,17] . Additionally, these same characteristics represent a threat to human beings in the medium and long term; the refractory nature of plastics offers great ecotoxicological potential.…”

“…Exposure to and bioaccumulation of these particles can impact human health [15] as they can adsorb toxic chemicals [20] and bioaccumulate in food and tissue [21,22] . Microplastics can also alter and negatively influence soil microbiomes [23,24] and impact physiological and resulting ecological processes [22,25] .…”
