  • Are p phenylenediamine (PPD) antioxidants in recycled tire rubber products toxic?
  • Recently, roadway releases of N, N ′-substituted p -phenylenediamine (PPD) antioxidants and their transformation products (TPs) received significant attention due to the highly toxic 6PPD-quinone. However, the occurrence of PPDs and TPs in recycled tire rubber products remains uncharacterized.
  • Is 6PPD a toxic oxidant?
  • To enhance tire durability, the antioxidant N- (1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD) is used in rubber, but it converts into the toxic 6PPD quinone (6PPD-Q) when exposed to oxidants like ozone (O 3), causing ecological concerns.
  • Why is 6PPD important?
  • Globally the increasing demand for rubber tires leads to the extensive consumption of 6PPD up to millions of tons resulting in significant release of this compound from tire rubber to the environment (Rossomme et al., 2023).
  • Can 6PPD be removed from end-of-life tires?
  • We introduce a decontamination strategy that removes 6PPD from end-of-life tires before it enters the broader ecosystem. We demonstrate the catalytic upgrade of 6PPD to safe chemicals and the valorization of crumb rubber to aromatics and carbon black using microwave-assisted pyrolysis.
