Science of the Total Environment, 2023 Air quality is a critical issue because even small amounts of air pollutants can cause significant adverse health effects. Road traffic is a major contributor to air pollution both through aerosols from exhaust emissions (EE) and non-exhaust emissions (NEE).

Classification and Characterization of Tire-Road Wear Particles in Road Dust by Density. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2022 Tire treads are abraded by friction with the road surface, producing tire tread wear particles (TWPs). TWPs combined with other particles on the road such as road wear particles (RWPs) and mineral particles (MPs), forming tire-road wear particles (TRWPs).

Preparation and Characterization of Model Tire-Road Wear Particles. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2022 Tire tread wear particles (TWPs) are one of major sources of microplastics in the environment. Tire–road wear particles (TRWPs) are mainly composed of TWPs and mineral particles (MPs), and many have long shapes.

Vehicle-Road Wear Microplastics: Fragmented Understanding of Their Impacts on Environment. [PDF]
Research (Wash D C)Vehicle–road wear microplastics (VRWMPs) are microplastic-sized polymer-containing particles generated from the vehicle–road system, including tire–road wear particles (TRWPs) as the dominant composite class and other polymer-bearing wear debris (e.g ...

Pyrolysis-Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (Py-GC-MS) Quantification of Tire and Road Wear Particles (TRWP) in Environmental Matrices: Assessing the Importance of Microstructure in Instrument Calibration Protocols [PDF]
Analytical Letters, 2021 Thermogravimetric methods with internal polymer standards have successfully quantified environmental tire and road wear particle (TRWP) concentrations. However, TRWP quantification in environmental matrices via pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (py-GC-MS) using butadiene rubber (BR) and styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) marker 4 ...

Science of the Total EnvironmentMicroparticles such as tire-road wear particles (TRWPs) and road pavement wear particles (RPWPs) are generated by the friction between tire tread and road surface. TRWPs and RPWPs on roads are dispersed through traffic and transferred to rivers and seas via runoff to accumulate in sediments. However, research on the generation of both TRWP and RPWP has
