概要（目的・用途・実施内容）/ Abstract (Aim, Use Applications and Contents)
We investigated the degradation of plastic materials that were collected from rivers, lakes and the ocean in Hokkaido and other sites in Japan. We analyzed the samples by electron microscopy and infrared spectroscopy to assess the degree of degradation.
実験 / Experimental
Samples were left in the state as they were found. SEM imaging and EDS mapping was used to assess the state of the plastic material.FT-IR spectrscopy was performed in the ATR mode in reflection, using a diamond window.
結果と考察 / Results and Discussion
Plastics are found in various states of degradation, depending on the
type of plastic and the duration of being in the environment.The figures show a polystyrene sample that was found half burried in soil. The non-burried part was discolored and yellow. It showed deep cracks. The FT-IR showed strong oxidation, as compared to the burried part that had not been exposed to sunlight.
