Molecular Interactions in NOMs-NPs Aggregation.

Caption

This figure illustrates key mechanisms in the aggregation of nanoplastics (NPs) with natural organic matter (NOMs), including weak interactions, calcium bridging, surface reactivity, and the dynamic process of aggregation. The lower panel shows a visual representation of NOMs-NPs aggregation, highlighting the complex molecular interactions that drive this phenomenon.
