  • 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 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).
  • 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.

  • Why is acetone better than 6PPD?
  • Acetone’s lower boiling point (56 °C) compared with 6PPD (260 °C) makes solvent recovery much less energy intensive. Although acetone can readily dissolve many classes of molecules 25, it does not degrade the cross-linked rubber phase. This is crucial for producing a 6PPD-free crumb rubber product that is safe for various applications.
