Abstract

The undesired man-influenced increase of organic material in the atmosphere above Croatia is observed and discussed. Two forms, one similar to natural cobweb, another described as cylinder shaped particles, were found in solid sediments of precipitates. The method of identifying these particles is emphasized, together with their physical and chemical properties. Using different methods a common core/coating structure is established. The structure and four distinct, obviously carefully selected diameters disclose the primary purpose of such a product. Other possible aims and consequences are also discussed.
