One file contains spectrum analysis of particles carried out with a ATR-FTIR. A READ-ME text file contains description of columns content for these two csv files. One .zip file includes a csv file with the description of the plastic particles larger than 5mm (macroplastic) and pictures. Microplastics are plastic particles with size < 5 mm in diameter (Arthur et al., 2008).
