  • 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).
  • What solvent is used to remove 6PPD from EOL tires?
  • Through batch extraction analysis and computational calculations, acetone is the best suited solvent for 6PPD removal from EOL tires of those tested. Furthermore, the batch extraction kinetics follow a first-order profile.
  • Can 6PPD be recycled?
  • 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. Upcycling end-of-life tire waste is complex due to the recalcitrant nature of the toxic legacy additive, 6PPD.
