Microplastic is insoluble plastic less than 5mm, and that having a fiber shape is microplastic fiber. In the apparel industry, where the use of synthetic fiber accounts for 65%, various studies related to microplastic fibers release are being conducted. Research on the release of microplastic fibers in the washing process predicts the amount of microplastic fibers released from fabric, and research on various variables is needed to reduce microplastic fibers. Therefore, in this study, polymer type, yarn type, and weaving method of fabrics are closely analyzed to compare the amount of microplastic fibers discharge and the type of fibers(length, diameter, etc.), and suggest that reduction technology of microplastic fibers from the manufacturing process through analyzing the trend of occurrence.
