Rubber - Framework for assessing the environmental fate of tyre and road wear particles (TRWP)

This document establishes a general framework and considerations for assessing the environmental fate of tyre tread chemical additives in cured polymer and tyre and road wear particles (TRWP) throughout a tyre lifecycle. This document is applicable to laboratory-generated TRWP from cured tread polymer of known composition.

Testing strategies are described for assessing the environmental fate and transport of tyre chemicals in the following processes that can occur during the tyre lifecycle:

a) transformation of chemical additives in tread during tyre curing;

b) transformation of chemical additives during TRWP generation (tyre use);

c) transformation of chemical additives during TRWP aging and weathering;

d) leaching of chemical additives and transformation products from TRWP to water;

e) availability of chemical additives and transformation products from TRWP in sediment ecosystems.

Mass concentrations and fractions of chemicals released or available from TRWP for the five lifecycle steps are used to estimate

a) cumulative fraction of tread chemical(s) and transformation product(s) released to water, and

b) cumulative fraction tread chemical(s) and transformation products(s) environmentally available.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
