I need help for a project, I need to figure out how to make microplastics (similar to the microplastics in the ocean), and if I'd be able to mix it with agar. Links appreciated.

make? just go buy a shitload of the cheapest 'exfoliant' body scrub crap. The exfoliant is micro plastics.

Good idea, but I'm trying to replicate microplastics similar to those in the ocean

But it'll probably work

yeh true. Not sure how long bottles take to break down into microplastics, or if they're constant shedding them. Another source may be the synthetic active wear women love release heaps of micro-plastics when washed. Get a cheap pair of leggings and wash them non-stop for a week haha.
