The white colour plastic nurdles change to yellow at 240 °C and black at 300 °C. Epamulla (PPI = 1940–3364) and Sarakkuwa (PPI = 2158–3466) beaches were recognized as the most contaminated beaches during the initial sampling (i.e., after six to eight days of the explosion of the vessel). Well-rounded small plastic nurdles (i.e., after one year of the disaster) can indicate degradation effects. FTIR results confirm (i) plastic nurdles as low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and (ii) alteration of the chemical composition of nurdles at a low temperature of 60 °C. In this case, a significant amount of microplastics have been added to the environment under the influence of UV irradiation and abrasion against beach sand. In addition, the presence of heavy metals (e.g., arsenic, cadmium, lead, and copper) in swash zone sediments is a great threat to marine animals and plants. Consequently, the ingestion of microplastics and heavy metals would be increased in a wide range of marine organisms and can be bio-accumulated in humans through seafood and salt.]]> Fri, 27 Jan 2023 10:48:35 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2060500
