AbstractTwo kinds of marine polypropylene (M1-PP and M2-PP) and one land PP (L-PP) samples were collected from two beaches and land in Japan, respectively, to study the fragmentation mechanisms. Delamination was observed on both M1-PP and M2-PP surfaces. Moreover, there was no delamination but an abrasion patch structure on the surface of L-PP. The delamination was studied using an advanced oxidation process-degraded PP as the marine PP model. The number and shape of cracks varied with an increase in degradation time. The fluctuations in the values and ratios of the carbonyl index as well as the weight change ratio were due to repeated oxidation and delamination. We found that the delamination behavior depends on the oxidation state. Poly(oxyethylene)8 octylphenyl ether (POE8) surfactant treatment caused the delamination to speed up, which is a typical characteristic of polyolefin environmental stress cracking (ESC). These results reveal that delamination is based on ESC.Article Highlights Two kinds of marine and one land polypropylene (PP) samples were collected from two beaches and land, respectively, to study the fragmentation mechanisms.

A new approach for elucidating gas-phase fragmentation mechanisms is proposed: graph theory-based reaction pathway searches (ACE-Reaction program) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Three-dimensional Monte Carlo calculations have been performed on the trajectories of high-energy hadrons in extensive air showers. The central electron density and gradient of distribution are obtained for individual electromagnetic cascades together with coordinates at the level of observation. Various assumptions concerning primary mass number and energy, distributions of strong interaction parameters, and fragmentation mechanisms are discussed with respect to the production of steep maxima of electron density by single electromagnetic cascades in the core region of extensive air showers.
