Debris produced by the normal wear and abrasion of vehicle tires consists of particles, which range in size from micrometres to millimetres. The transport of oxygenated organics by tire debris is related to two properties: the chemical composition of the material and the physics and morphology of the particles. The latter properties have been investigated by the authors by a variety of methods; the orresponding results will be presented. Moreover, estimates of the physical parameters will be provided, which pertain to the adsorption of volatile organic compounds by the airborne particle.

Abstract
Debris produced by the normal wear and abrasion of vehicle tires consists of particles, which range in size from micrometres to millimetres. The transport of oxygenated organics by tire debris is related to two properties: the chemical composition of the material and the physics and morphology of the particles. The latter properties have been investigated by the authors by a variety of methods; the orresponding results will be presented. Moreover, estimates of the physical parameters will be provided, which pertain to the adsorption of volatile organic compounds by the airborne particle.
