Shock Wave-Induced Degradation of Polyethylene and Polystyrene: A Reactive Molecular Dynamics Study on Nanoplastic Transformation in Aqueous Environments

Degradation of polyethylene and polystyrene was studied theoretically using reactive molecular dynamics based on the ReaxFF force field. The degradation reactions were carried out on nanoparticles (approximately 2 nm in diameter) composed of ideal low-density polyethylene and polystyrene in the pres...
