Code for: Retreaded tires are an overlooked source of microplastics with distinct additive leaching and ecotoxicity

Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) 2026

Summary

Researchers developed a random forest model to rank which chemical additives in retreaded tire wear particle leachate drive the most ecotoxicity, providing a computational tool to pinpoint the key compounds responsible for toxicity observed in associated bioassays.

Polymers

This code uses a random forest model to rank the contribution of tire wear particle leachate additives to toxicity, identifying key additives that dominate leachate ecotoxicity. It supports data analysis for the study: Retreaded tires are an overlooked source of microplastics with distinct additive leaching and ecotoxicity.
