In the present study, the composition of the SOA produced by cyclohexene ozonolysis in the absence of seed aerosols has been investigated online and off-line using synchrotron-based thermal desorption/tunable vacuum ultraviolet photoionization time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometry(TD-VUV-TOF-PIAMS) in conjunction with a custom-built smog chamber. On the basis of the molecular ions observed by mass spectrometry at 11.5 e V, it was found that dicarboxylic acids, dialdehydes, and cyclic anhydrides are the predominant low molecular weight components in the particle phase. The results also indicated that TD-VUV-TOF-PIAMS coupled with filter sampling is a potentially useful tool for the investigation of SOA composition both in the field and in the laboratory.展开更多

Sodium dodecyl sulfonate was used as emulsifier. The modifying effect was evaluated by using contact angle and activation index. The thermal stability,functional groups, structure, morphology, phase composition and surface element valence of MH whiskers were characterized by thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry(TG-DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). Results reveal that the contact angle and activation index of modified MH whiskers are 105°and 76.5%, the thermal stability shows little change, and the decomposition temperature ranges between 38 and419 ℃. The copolymer of n-butyl acrylate and maleic anhydride absorbed on the surface of MH whiskers leads to the increased diameter and makes the surface of whiskers be rougher. Furthermore, the absorption of element C on the surface of MH whiskers increases, and the diffraction intensity of C 1 s spectra increases; thus, the compatibility of whiskers in the organic phase can be improved significantly. Lastly, the surface molecular model of MH whiskers modified via in situ copolymerization of n-butyl acrylate and maleic anhydride is established.展开更多

文摘Magnesium hydroxide(MH) whiskers were modified via in situ polymerization of n-butyl acrylate and maleic anhydride. Sodium dodecyl sulfonate was used as emulsifier. The modifying effect was evaluated by using contact angle and activation index. The thermal stability,functional groups, structure, morphology, phase composition and surface element valence of MH whiskers were characterized by thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry(TG-DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). Results reveal that the contact angle and activation index of modified MH whiskers are 105°and 76.5%, the thermal stability shows little change, and the decomposition temperature ranges between 38 and419 ℃. The copolymer of n-butyl acrylate and maleic anhydride absorbed on the surface of MH whiskers leads to the increased diameter and makes the surface of whiskers be rougher. Furthermore, the absorption of element C on the surface of MH whiskers increases, and the diffraction intensity of C 1 s spectra increases; thus, the compatibility of whiskers in the organic phase can be improved significantly. Lastly, the surface molecular model of MH whiskers modified via in situ copolymerization of n-butyl acrylate and maleic anhydride is established.
