Pollution derived from car tires is of growing research interest due to its apparent omnipresence in the urban environment and its associated toxicity. Studies have focused largely on the occurrence of these tire materials, deemed tire wear particles (TWPs), and their associated chemicals in the aquatic environment. However, less attention has been paid to atmospheric TWPs, which can remain airborne and be transported over long distances. In addition, there are few studies pertaining to the gaseous contaminants originating from tire wear, creating a significant knowledge gap. This review aims to summarize the current state of knowledge surrounding atmospheric tire wear pollution by detailing relevant studies conducted under both laboratory and ambient environmental conditions. Organic chemicals that are associated with this form of pollution, including diphenylamine antioxidants, phthalates, benzothiazole, benzotriazoles, and alkylphenols were highlighted for their potential implications for air. While a number of studies have investigated oxidation in aquatic environments, the current review highlights a clear absence of oxidation product information relevant to air. There is also a critical research gap surrounding the physico-chemical properties of these potential atmospheric pollutants. As a result, the environmental behaviour and fate of these contaminants are largely unknown. Based on these knowledge gaps, we propse recommendations for future work to advance this area of research.
