Implementation of regulatory standards has reduced exhaust emissions of particulate matter
from road traffic substantially in the developed world. However, nonexhaust particle …

Using what has become a celebrated catchphrase, Philip W. Anderson once wrote that
“more is different”(Science, Vol. 177, Issue 4047, pp. 393–396, 1972). First formulated in the …

Tire wear particles (TWPs) are one of the environment's most important emission sources of
microplastics. In this work, chemical identification of these particles was carried out in …

Based on the problem of dust rapidly resuspending after settling by water on the road, a
road dust suppressant PVA&GG@ IA-F with excellent solubility and hygroscopicity for the …

Road dust pollution is a complex atmospheric issue that poses a significant ecotoxicological
threat to human health and the environment. The presence of viruses in road dust can put …

Traffic-related particulate matter (PM) plays an important role in urban air pollution.
However, sources of urban pollution are difficult to distinguish. This study utilises a mobile …

Road dust (RD) is one of the most important sources of particles in the atmosphere,
especially in industrial areas and cities. In this special issue, we collected 16 original articles …

Tire-wear particles (TWP) from vehicles serves as a non-exhaust emission source. The mass
content of metallic species in road dust may increase owing to the traffic of heavy vehicles …

Road dust-associated contaminants (RD-AC) are gradually becoming a much thornier
problem, as their monotonous correlations render them carcinogenic, mutagenic, and …

The Particle Measurement Programme Informal Working Group (PMP-IWG) coordinated a
global interlaboratory study (ILS) on brake wear particle emissions with the participation of …
