  • 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.
  • Are there any new motor vehicle tires that don't contain 6PPD?
  • USTMA is not aware of any new motor vehicle tires available today that do not contain 6PPD. 6PPD-quinone, or 6PPDQ, is a recently discovered transformation product of 6PPD that may form when 6PPD reacts with oxygen or ozone under certain conditions. 6PPDQ is not used in U.S. tire manufacturing.
  • Does 6PPD ozonation pose environmental risks?
  • 6PPD, a tire rubber antioxidant, poses substantial ecological risks because it can form a highly toxic quinone transformation product (TP), 6PPD-quinone (6PPDQ), during exposure to gas-phase ozone. Important data gaps exist regarding the structures, reaction mechanisms, and environmental occurrence of TPs from 6PPD ozonation.
  • What causes 6ppd-q in soil and tire rubber wear particles (TRWPS)?
  • There is a linkage between 6PPD-Q in soil and tire rubber wear particles (TRWPs), indicating its origin from sources associated with vehicular activities (Klockner et al., 2019). Approximately 50% of TRWPs can infiltrate the soil, releasing bound chemicals like 6PPD (Klockner et al., 2019).
