Fiber filament microplastic reference materials
Precisely quantified microfibers.
At your chosen concentration
We introduce the world’s first commercially available microplastic fiber reference material. Through the application of critical-angle darkfield microscopy, we quantify fibers from 50 µm in length upwards, to determine the particle size distribution in your unique sample - just as we do with beads and fragments. Additionally, to facilitate comparison between plastic and non-plastic fibers, we offer a selection of synthetic and, semi-synthetic, and natural polymers in various colors; avaiable with EasyMP™ and in dry, neat format.

250 mg: 599.95€
500 mg: 799.95€
1000 mg: 999.95€
Dry, neat
Fibers are also available in dry format in 250 mg (0.25 g), 500 mg (0.5 g) and 1000 mg (1.0 g) aliquots, consisting of approximately
n = 500k fibers and n = 1 million fibers, respectively.
Ideal for ecotoxicology studies
Step 1:
Pluck and weigh desired quantity of dry fiber.
Note: the number of fibers per mg and the fiber length distribution is provided. Data is based on four subsamples.
Fibers diperse easily in pure water,
only by mechanical mixing.
Tip: For complete dispersion, add
0.01–0.05 vol.% Tween 20 to
the aqueous solution
Step 2:
We recommend dispersing the dry fibers in a water solution containing 0.05 vol.% Tween. Alternatively, the fibers can be mixed into dry sediment and dispersed through mechanical mixing.
We care about your data
Each micrograph is manually inspected to correct for overlap and agglomeration of fibers.
This process is applied to each of the four subsamples that make up your unique sample. Accurate corrections lead to precise particle distribution estimates, which ultimately enhance the reliability of your research findings.
