Secondary organic aerosol formation from the β-pinene+NO$_{\textrm{3}}$ system: effect of humidity and peroxy radical fate. Boyd, C. M., Sanchez, J., Xu, L., Eugene, A. J., Nah, T., Tuet, W.

Aerosol yields are determined for experiments performed under both dry (relative humidity (RH) \textless 2 %) and humid (RH = 50 % and RH = 70 %) conditions. To probe the effects of peroxy radical (RO$_{\textrm{2}}$) fate on aerosol formation, "RO$_{\textrm{2}}$ + NO$_{\textrm{3}}$ dominant" and "RO$_{\textrm{2}}$ + HO$_{\textrm{2}}$ dominant" experiments are performed. Gas-phase organic nitrate species (with molecular weights of 215, 229, 231, and 245 amu, which likely correspond to molecular formulas of C$_{\textrm{10}}$H$_{\textrm{17}}$NO$_{\textrm{4}}$, C$_{\textrm{10}}$H$_{\textrm{15}}$NO$_{\textrm{5}}$, C$_{\textrm{10}}$H$_{\textrm{17}}$NO$_{\textrm{5}}$, and C$_{\textrm{10}}$H$_{\textrm{15}}$NO$_{\textrm{6}}$, respectively) are detected by chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CIMS) and their formation mechanisms are proposed. The NO$^{\textrm{+}}$ (at m/z 30) and NO$_{\textrm{2}}$$^{\textrm{+}}$ (at m/z 46) ions contribute about 11 % to the combined organics and nitrate signals in the typical aerosol mass spectrum, with the NO$^{\textrm{+}}$ : NO$_{\textrm{2}}$$^{\textrm{+}}$ ratio ranging from 4.8 to 10.2 in all experiments conducted. The SOA yields in the "RO$_{\textrm{2}}$ + NO$_{\textrm{3}}$ dominant" and "RO$_{\textrm{2}}$ + HO$_{\textrm{2}}$ dominant" experiments are comparable. For a wide range of organic mass loadings (5.1–216.1 μg m$^{\textrm{−3}}$), the aerosol mass yield is calculated to be 27.0–104.1 %. Although humidity does not appear to affect SOA yields, there is evidence of particle-phase hydrolysis of organic nitrates, which are estimated to compose 45–74 % of the organic aerosol. The extent of organic nitrate hydrolysis is significantly lower than that observed in previous studies on photooxidation of volatile organic compounds in the presence of NO$_{\textrm{x}}$. It is estimated that about 90 and 10 % of the organic nitrates formed from the β-pinene+NO$_{\textrm{3}}$ reaction are primary organic nitrates and tertiary organic nitrates, respectively. While the primary organic nitrates do not appear to hydrolyze, the tertiary organic nitrates undergo hydrolysis with a lifetime of 3–4.5 h. Results from this laboratory chamber study provide the fundamental data to evaluate the contributions of monoterpene + NO$_{\textrm{3}}$ reaction to ambient organic aerosol measured in the southeastern United States, including the Southern Oxidant and Aerosol Study (SOAS) and the Southeastern Center for Air Pollution and Epidemiology (SCAPE) study.\textless/p\textgreater
