Molecular Characterization of Secondary Organic Aerosol Formed via Aqueous-phase Reactions of Phenolic Compounds
EMSL Project ID
44654
Abstract
The main objective of this proposed project is to perform detailed, molecular- level characterization of the chemical composition of secondary organic aerosol formed via aqueous-phase reactions of phenolic compounds. A key aspect of this proposed research is to formulate and confirm the fundamental chemical mechanisms responsible for aqueous phenolic SOA formation based on integrating top-down (bulk characterization) and bottom-up (molecular-level characterization) measurements of the chemical composition of the reaction products.
