Characterization and in silico toxicity assessment of polypropylene photodegradation leachates in a simulated marine environment.

Polypropylene (PP) is a major contributor to marine plastic pollution, where photodegradation under ultraviolet (UV) light leads to the formation of complex mixtures of low-molecular-weight compounds and leached additives. However, the chemical ident…
