XRD spectra of the catalysts were collected using Rigaku Smart Lab SE X-ray diffractometer (Cu-Kα radiation at λ = 0.15406 nm). The average crystallite size of the nanoparticles was estimated using the Debye–Scherrer eqn (1):28,34 (link) where Z is the diameter of the average crystallite size (angstrom or nm); λ is the X-ray wavelength (1.5406 A) for Cu Kα; θ is the Bragg angle; k is the Scherrer constant (typically from 0.9 to 1.0); B is the full width at half maximum.

The river sand (density: 2.75 g/cm3) purchased from Weiteng Company (Yueyang City, Hunan, China) was used for the experiment. The sand was air-dried and sieved through a 2 mm sieve to remove large particles and impurities, and then baked at 400 °C for 3 h to remove organic materials that may interfere with the quantification of MPs [20 (link)]. The prepared sand was stored in a desiccator before being used in the experiment. The composition of the river sand was analyzed using a SmartLab SE X-Ray Diffractometer (Rigaku, USA) (Fig. S5). For measurement of zeta potentials, the sand was grinded and passed through 200 mesh sieve and the PE MPs suspension was the same as in experiments (20 mg/L, Milli-Q water as the background solution). The zeta potentials of PE MPs and river sand were determined by Zetasizer Nano ZEN2600 (Malvern Instruments, UK). The properties of the tested materials are presented in Table 1.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
