In this paper, we present a novel technique for the nanoscale characterization of the outer and inner structure of tyre debris. Tyre debris is produced by the normal wear of tyres. In previous studies, the microcharacterization and identification were performed by analytical electron microscopy. This study is a development of the characterization of surface and microstructure of tyre debris. For the first time, tyre debris was analysed by focused ion beam (FIB), a technique with 2- to 5-nm resolution that does not require any sample preparation. We studied tyre debris produced in the laboratory. We made electron and ionic imaging of the surface of the material, and after a ionic cut, we studied the internal microstructure of the same sample. The tyre debris was analysed by FIB without any sample preparations unlike the case of scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). Useful information was derived to improve detection and monitoring techniques of pollution by tyre degradation processes.
