Tangled seaweed vs. ocean microplastics 🌊🥊

Capturing microplastics in water has been a challenge because plastic particles come in many different sizes. Researchers led by Prof. Orlin Velev were inspired by floating seaweed mats and “Neptune balls" to create superadhesive meshes that trap large millimeter-scale plastics & tiny nanoscale particles from freshwater and saltwater alike!
