Development of LCA characterization factors for tire and road wear particles impacts via ecotoxicity and physical effects on biota

This repository contains the Supplementary Information for the article Development of LCA Characterization Factors for Tire and Road Wear Particles impacts via Ecotoxicity and Physical effects on biota. SI_1_Varia: This file provides additional information on the parameterization of the fate model, inputs for the redistribution model, in-depth analysis of fate results, ecotoxicity data screening, and midpoint-to-endpoint characterization factor (CF) conversions. SI_2_ Degradation_rates: This file contains calculation details for surface-specific degradation rates (SSDR) and volumetric degradation rates derived from the latest mass loss and biodegradation literature. SI_3_Redistribution_model: This file contains compiled country-specific redistribution coefficients and technosphere redistribution calculations. SI 4. EEF_data_calculations: This file contains compiled bioassay datasets and calculation details for hazardous concentrations (HC20), ecotoxicological effect factors (EEFs), and 95% confidence intervals, including extrapolation factors used to harmonize ecotoxicity values into EC10-eq. SI 5. results_FF_CF_CI_TRWP: This file contains steady-state fate factors (FFs) and characterization factors (CFs) at both midpoint and endpoint levels, computed using the SimpleBox4Plastics (SB4P) script. SI 6. CF_ecotox: This file contains calculation details comparing additive leachate toxicity and equations defining total additive ecotoxicity.
