Leaching of chemicals and DOC from tire particles under simulated marine conditions
Tire wear particles (TWPs) represent one of the major anthropogenic pools of particles ending up in the environment. They contain a large variety of chemicals, a part of which may be released into the environment through leaching, although the influence ...

Tire Wear Chemicals in the Urban Atmosphere: Significant Contributions of Tire Wear Particles to PM2.5 [PDF]
Tire wear particles (TWPs) containing tire wear chemicals (TWCs) are of global concern due to their large emissions and potential toxicity. However, TWP contributions to urban fine particles are poorly understood. Here, 72 paired gas-phase and PM2.5 samples were collected in the urban air of the Pearl River Delta, China.

Influence of particles formed resulting from wear of automobile brake mechanisms on human health [PDF]
In this article, details of the brake mechanism and the method of determining the concentration of metals in the particles formed from the wear of tires as a result of the movement of cars, as well as a comparative analysis of road dust formed on asphalt-

Characterization of tire and road wear particles in urban river samples
Tire and road wear particles (TRWP) consist of tread rubber elastomers with pavement encrustations generated from tire-road friction. Our previous work utilized density separation and chemical mapping to characterize chemical and physical properties of ...

High levels of tire wear particles in soils along low traffic roads [PDF]
Traffic pollution has been linked to high levels of metals and organic contaminants in road-side soils, largely due to abrasion of tires, brake pads and the road surface.
