Waste tires to fertilizer: Carbon black zinc fertilizer for maize in calcareous soils
Abstract Waste tires accumulate in massive quantities worldwide, posing significant environmental challenges. Pyrolysis under high vacuum offers a potential disposal solution, producing recovered carbon black (CB) enriched in zinc (Zn) from zinc oxide used in tire manufacture.

Occurrence and risks of 23 tire additives and their transformation products in an urban water system
Tire wear particles (TWPs) enter road surface with the friction between tires and road surfaces. Under the volatilization, leaching, and transformation action on TWPs by sunlight and rain, tire additives are released into urban water systems, such as ...

A Colorimetric Method for Naked-eye Detection of 6PPD in Rubber Products and Wastes [PDF]
N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N\u27-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD) has received increasing attention due to its ubiquitous environmental occurrence and the extreme aquatic toxicity of its quinone oxidation product. Given 6PPD\u27s application as an antioxidant

The study of the properties, chemical composition, and degradation patterns of rubber materials used in vehicle tires remains a complex and interdisciplinary task. Rubber for tires—more precisely, complex mixtures of elastomers containing fillers, plasticizers, binders, and other additives—is a condensed chemically active material, the composition and ...

Hydrothermal Preparation of Ceria Nanoparticles and Their Effect on Rubber Aging Properties
Rubber products are widely used in various fields because of its excellent elasticity, but aging will seriously affect the performance of rubber parts, reduce economic benefits, and bring safety hazards. Many traditional organic antioxidants in rubber industry have biotoxicity, thus developing new antioxidants is urgent.

Repurposing Waste Sulfur for the Ionic Vulcanization of Nanocellulose Hydrogels
Herein the ionic crosslinking of cellulose nanocrystals using sodium polysulfides is demonstrated. Chain entanglement, derived from O‐Ca‐S bridges within a hydrogel structure forms hydrophobic occlusions, leading to a significant increase in the material storage modulus and the swelling potential, thus translating to a potential application in ...

6PPD and 6PPD-Q Induce Mitochondrial Dysfunction in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>. [PDF]
N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′phenyl-p-phenylenediamine, more commonly known as 6PPD, is a tire antiozonant used to prevent rubber oxidation and degradation. When 6PPD reacts with ozone, it becomes 6PPD-Quinone (6PPD-Q).
