Although neutral species primarily dominate the overall sorption, hydrophobic entities of ionic species cannot be neglected for some compounds. Notwithstanding, our results show that since microplastic concentrations as currently observed in the environment are very low, they are only a relevant sorbent for strongly hydrophobic but not for polar compounds.
