Microplastics (MPs), plastic particles< 5 mm, are found in environments, including terrestrial
ecosystems, planetwide. Most research so far has focused on ecotoxicology, examining …

As exhaust emissions of particles and volatile organic compounds (VOC) from road vehicles
have progressively come under greater control, non-exhaust emissions have become an …

Traffic-related non-exhaust particulate matter mainly consists of tire wear, brake wear, and
road wear. For this study, passive-samplers were placed near highly frequented roads in …

The present review covers developments in studies of nanomaterials (NMs) in the
environment since our much cited review in 2008. We discuss novel insights into fate and …

The main sources of non-exhaust vehicular emissions that contribute to road dust are tire,
brake and clutch wear, road surface wear, and other vehicle and road component …

Tire wear particles (TWP) have caused widespread contamination in the environment.
However, their behavior and potential impacts in soil remain unclear since studies have so …

Tire wear particles (TWP), generated from tire material during use on roads have gained
increasing attention as part of organic particulate contaminants, such as microplastic, in …

Crumb rubber granulate (CRG) produced from end of life tires (ELTs) is applied to synthetic
turf pitches (STPs), playgrounds, safety surfaces and walkways. In addition to fillers …

The recent advances in nanotechnology and the corresponding increase in the use of
nanomaterials in products in every sector of society have resulted in uncertainties regarding …
