228232 is an asteroid in the asteroid belt. It was discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey on August 19, 2006. The asteroid is approximately 3.4 kilometers in diameter and orbits the Sun every 4.4 years. Its orbital path is moderately eccentric and inclined, placing it within the main asteroid belt region between Mars and Jupiter.

The composition of 228232 is not definitively known, but based on its location and spectral characteristics, it is likely a stony or metallic asteroid. Further observations and analysis are required to determine its precise mineral makeup and origin. As with all asteroids, 228232 is a remnant of the early solar system, offering clues about the formation and evolution of planetary bodies. Its discovery contributes to the ongoing cataloging and understanding of the vast population of asteroids that populate our solar system.
