Concentrations of the organic additive di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) from polyester extracts at the time points of the experiment (A) and correlation between DEHP concentrations and the change of SOC on the polyester treatment relative to the control (B). The DEHP concentration at timepoint − 2 represents the DEHP mass concentration of pristine polyester before deployment. Data in panel A are presented as averages and standard deviation of three replicate measurements using liquid injection GC/MS.
