We studied the degradation of a high-performance-polyethylene-polypropylene (HPPE-PP) trawl net and two trammel nets made of polyamide 6 (PA6) or biodegradable polybutylene-succinate-polybutyrate-adipate-terephthalate (PBS-PBAT). Accelerated artificial ageing (AA) was performed using UV irradiation under environmental or extreme conditions followed by abrasion in water with glass microbeads. FN degradation and organic compound release were studied as well as the toxicity of leachates on the marine bacteria Allivibrio fischeri and larvae of the fish Oryzias latipes. AA of FNs under environmental conditions caused slight polymer degradation and did not produce significant MNPs. However, under extreme conditions, PA6 and PBS-PBAT FNs produced 9.1 × 10 MP/mL and 2.0 × 10 MP/mL, respectively. FNs released a total of 27 organic compounds in the leachates from which 7 were quantified at concentrations between 0.35 µg/L (Phthalimide) to 200 µg/L (Succinic-acid 2-methylallyl-undecyl-ester). Only the PBS-PBAT FN leachates induced significant toxicity on bacteria, bioluminescence inhibition ranging from 26 % to 56 %. Exposure of fish larvae to leachates of AA FNs disrupted their behavior. PBS-PBAT FN leachates caused the highest behavior stress indicator at day 12 (8.5), followed by PA6 at day 25 (8) and HPPE-PP at day 12 (7). We concluded that the toxicity of FN leachates was related more to the release of organic compounds than to the release of MPs. The toxicity of bio-based and biodegradable FNs should be further evaluated before their wider implementation in the fishing sector.
