Phase Behavior of Internal Mixtures of Hydrocarbon-like Primary Organic Aerosol and Secondary Aerosol Based on Their Differences in Oxygen-to-Carbon Ratios

Fabian Mahrt et al.

Summary: The phase behavior of atmospheric particles containing mixtures of hydrocarbon-like organic aerosol (HOA) and secondary organic aerosol (SOA), which is determined by the difference in the average oxygen-to-carbon atomic ratio, is important for predicting their impacts on air pollution, human health, and climate. This study found that 88% of the 77 different HOA + SOA mixtures studied exhibited two phases. The phase behavior was independent of relative humidity but correlated with the difference in O/C ratios between the HOA and SOA components.

Machine Learning for Predicting Chemical Potentials of Multifunctional Organic Compounds in Atmospherically Relevant Solutions

Noora Hyttinen et al.

Summary: In this study, we trained an Extreme Minimum Learning Machine (EMLM) machine learning model to predict the chemical potentials of individual conformers of multifunctional organic compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The model accurately predicts the chemical potentials within the size range of the training data, and also shows a certain level of predictive performance for molecules that are larger than the training set.

Not all types of secondary organic aerosol mix: two phases observed when mixing different secondary organic aerosol types

Fabian Mahrt et al.

Summary: This study investigates the number of phases formed after mixing different types of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) types. The research finds that the number of phases depends on the difference in the average oxygen-to-carbon ratio (O/C) between the two SOA types. By observing the particles formed from mixing specific O/C ratios of SOA types, it is possible to predict whether the mixture will form one-phase or two-phase particles. Additionally, phase-separated SOA particles can form when volatile organic compounds emitted from real trees are oxidized.

Comparison of saturation vapor pressures of α-pinene + O3 oxidation products derived from COSMO-RS computations and thermal desorption experiments

Noora Hyttinen et al.

Summary: Accurate determination of gas-to-particle partitioning is crucial for modeling secondary organic aerosol formation. In this study, we estimated the saturation vapor pressures of alpha-pinene-ozonolysis-derived secondary organic aerosol constituents using experimental and computational methods. The results showed a good agreement between the two methods for molecules with molar masses around 190 g mol(-1) and higher.

Large Discrepancy in the Formation of Secondary Organic Aerosols from Structurally Similar Monoterpenes

Ditte Thomsen et al.

Summary: This study investigates the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) from the ozonolysis of Delta(3)-carene and alpha-pinene. Through smog chamber studies and detailed offline analysis, it is found that Delta(3)-carene produces higher SOA mass and larger particles, while alpha-pinene produces a larger number of smaller particles. This suggests that the oxidation products of Delta(3)-carene tend to condense on existing particles, while those of alpha-pinene contribute more to new particle formation. The experimental results are in good agreement with quantum chemical calculations.

Gas-to-Particle Partitioning of Cyclohexene- and α-Pinene-Derived Highly Oxygenated Dimers Evaluated Using COSMOtherm

Noora Hyttinen et al.

Summary: The study shows that the volatility of cyclohexene- and alpha-pinene-derived dimers is related to the number of hydrogen bond donors and oxygen atoms in the compound. Different functional group types and formation mechanisms do not significantly affect the volatility. In the presence of aqueous and organic aerosol particles, all studied dimers are likely to partition into the particle phase and contribute to SOA formation.

Dynamics of Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation in Submicrometer Aerosol

Theresa M. Kucinski et al.

Summary: Nanoscale materials exhibit unique properties compared to their bulk counterparts, with submicrometer particles showing shifts in phase transitions. Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) has broad applications and is commonly observed in atmospheric aerosol particles. The lower SRH for submicrometer aerosol particles compared to micrometer-sized droplets suggests that current estimates of phase-separated aerosols may be overestimated.

Coexistence of three liquid phases in individual atmospheric aerosol particles

Yuanzhou Huang et al.

Summary: Individual atmospheric particles can contain mixtures of primary organic aerosol (POA), secondary organic aerosol (SOA), and secondary inorganic aerosol (SIA), with the potential to have three distinct liquid phases. The presence of these phases is influenced by the elemental oxygen-to-carbon (O:C) ratio of the SOA, impacting equilibration timescales and potential effects on cloud formation and atmospheric chemistry.

Fluorescence Aerosol Flow Tube Spectroscopy to Detect Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation

Paul E. Ohno et al.

Summary: This study develops a method using fluorescence aerosol flow tube spectroscopy to characterize liquid-liquid phase separation in aerosols, and finds that the SRH values for submicron particles are lower than those for supermicron particles. The experiment uses fluorescence emission from probe molecules in particles to determine the relative humidity at which LLPS occurs.

Phase Behavior of Hydrocarbon-like Primary Organic Aerosol and Secondary Organic Aerosol Proxies Based on Their Elemental Oxygen-to-Carbon Ratio

Fabian Mahrt et al.

Summary: The research found that internal mixtures of POA and SOA in the atmosphere almost always formed two phases when the O/C ratio of the POA was less than 0.11. When the O/C ratio of the POA was between 0.11 and 0.29, the mixtures mostly resulted in particles with one liquid phase. However, depending on the types of SOA and POA surrogates, two liquid phases were also observed in some cases, and an increase in phase-separated particles was observed when increasing the relative humidity within this O/C range.
