The role of functional groups in the understanding of secondary organic aerosol formation mechanism from α-pinene

1-s2.0-S0048969720333519-ga1_lrg.jpg

Highlights
•The SOA is characterized by O–H groups in the OH channel and C=O groups in the O3 channel

•The nO−H/nC=O ratio is a good parameter in revealing the difference of SOA between the O3 and OH oxidation channels

•The SOA from OH channel is mainly formed by autoxidation of RO2 radicals

•Different structures of RO2 radicals are responsible for the difference functional group signatures of SOA

Highlights
• Water-soluble organic aerosol was the major fraction of OA in summer in Beijing.

• SOA from regional and photochemical processing contributed dominantly to WSOA.

• A high diversity of CHO and CHOS molecular compounds in WSOA was observed.

• Formation of more organosulfates during polluted days than clean days in summer.

Role of liquid water in the formation of O3 and SOA particles from 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene

liquid water vs SOA.jpg

Highlights
• Liquid water can affect the formation of O3 and SOA from 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene.

• The hygroscopic growth factors of SOA from 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene were measured.

• Hydrolysis of N2O5 is the major reason for the decrease of O3.

• The major contribution of SOA under high LWC conditions comes from aqueous reaction.
