Chiron Microplastics (MacroPRefs®, MicroPRefs®, and NanoPRefs®)

Chiron's PRefs® project offers certified reference materials for the six most common environmental plastics: PE, PET, PS, PP, PVC, and PC. These materials are categorized into three sub-brands: MacroPRefs®, MicroPRefs®, and NanoPRefs®, each specializing in different particle sizes ranging from 50 to 300 microns. This initiative aims to aid the reduction of plastic pollution by providing accurate reference standards for microplastics analysis.

  • Quality Assurance and Calibration
  • Microplastic Reference Materials : Chiron has created the first microplastic standards with precise sizes, shapes, and polymer types, enabling consistent and comparable results in research and industrial applications.
  • Method Validation
  • Proficiency Testing
  • Supporting Research and Regulations
