摘要

This study investigated the aging and pollution behavior of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polycarbonate (PC) microplastics (MPs) exposed to residual chlorine in tap water distribution systems. The ABS and PC MPs in the aging processes were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Results revealed that 0.4 mg/L residual chlorine could induce morphological changes, increase surface oxygen-containing functional groups, and enhance the hydrophilicity of MPs at the CT value of 9216 mg·min/L. Additionally, both ABS and PC MPs released dissolved organic matter (DOM) into water, with higher DOM concentrations observed in the presence of residual chlorine. Besides, this interaction also led to the formation of trichloromethane (TCM). And the TCM production increased with higher MPs concentrations, smaller particle size, and longer chlorine exposure time.
