Datos
Descripción
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are widely used in consumer products mainly due to their properties as a UV blocker. This high number of applications can lead to the entrance of ZnO NPs into the soil and the potential contamination of surface and ground waters due to drainage, leaching and run-off. In the soil, NPs tend to undergo transformations such as aggregation/agglomeration, sorption to soil surfaces, and in the case of metallic NPs dissolution to the ionic metal. These transformed nanoparticles may exhibit different properties than pristine nanoparticles, which will affect their fate, transport, and toxicity. The size and surface functionalization of NP also have a marked effect on their surface properties, which in turn influenced transport through the soil. To date, information on the release and fate of NPs in the soilwater environment is very scarce.
