Abstract

A method for detecting adsorption performance of microplastics for heavy metals using low-field NMR relaxation method, including: establishing a reference line reflecting a relationship between a target heavy metal ion concentration and a transverse relaxation time; conducting a heavy metal adsorption experiment on microplastics and obtaining samples at different time points; detecting transverse relaxation times of the multiple samples obtained; determining a heavy metal ion concentration of each sample based on the reference line of the target heavy metal ion concentration and the transverse relaxation time; analyzing data and implementing a model fitting process. The method according to the present disclosure does not require cumbersome and complicated sample pre-processing, it can be measured immediately after sampling, it is simple, fast and low-cost, the method has a wide detection limit, the detection is faster, non-destructive testing can be achieved.
