Rubber Waste and Tyre Stewardship

Dear Colleagues,

The number of end-of-life tyres (ELTs) has exceeded 1 billion/y globally, and their random accumulation and improper disposal have caused serious environmental pollution problems and resource wastage. The efficient upcycling of ELTs is of great significance to sustainable development. This Special Issue focuses on green chemistry and high-value-added situations, particularly real practical cases, which are key to the upcycling of ELTs. This issue welcome papers from different areas related to rubber upcycling to fill the gap in research and accelerate the industry.
