Following the question “What does plastic do in the ocean?”, visitors to SCALE can observe how plastics behave in water, whether in the large wave channel, where the tidal range is simulated, or in small aquariums. How water affects plastics is presented in parallel using test systems. Interested visitors can also test their knowledge of plastics at the IKK stand in SPINE.
Take part in the quiz on the sustainability of these versatile materials, receive comprehensive information on the subject, and feel free to chat with us at the stands. We look forward to your interest and your visit. On your journey through research, you will find opportunities to refresh yourself at various stands.
The programme is available here: "A Night Out with Science".
