Formation of Secondary Organic Aerosol from the Direct Photolytic Generation of Organic Radicals.
The immense complexity inherent in the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA)-due primarily to the large number of oxidation steps and reaction pathways involved-has limited the detailed understanding of its underlying chemistry. As a means of simplifying such complexity, here we demonstrate the formation of SOA through the photolysis of gas-phase alkyl iodides, which generates organic pe...
متن کاملVolatility and aging of atmospheric organic aerosol.
Organic-aerosol phase partitioning (volatility) and oxidative aging are inextricably linked in the atmosphere because partitioning largely controls the rates and mechanisms of aging reactions as well as the actual amount of organic aerosol. Here we discuss those linkages, describing the basic theory of partitioning thermodynamics as well as the dynamics that may limit the approach to equilibriu...
متن کاملChanges in Organic Aerosol Composition with Aging Inferred from Aerosol Mass Spectra
Organic aerosols (OA) can be separated with factor analysis of aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) data into hydrocarbon-like OA (HOA) and oxygenated OA (OOA). We develop a new method to parameterize H:C of OOA in terms of f43 (ratio of m/z 43, mostly C2H3O, to total signal in the component mass spectrum). Such parameterization allows for the transformation of large database of ambient OOA componen...
متن کاملOH-initiated heterogeneous aging of highly oxidized organic aerosol.
The oxidative evolution ("aging") of organic species in the atmosphere is thought to have a major influence on the composition and properties of organic particulate matter but remains poorly understood, particularly for the most oxidized fraction of the aerosol. Here we measure the kinetics and products of the heterogeneous oxidation of highly oxidized organic aerosol, with an aim of better con...
