Identification of polymers as major components of atmospheric organic aerosols. Kalberer, M.; Paulsen, D.; Sax, M.; Steinbacher, M.; Dommen, J.; Prevot, a., S., H.; Fisseha, R.; Weingartner, E.; Frankevich, V.; Zenobi, R.; and Baltensperger, U. Science, 303(5664):1659-62, 3, 2004.
Website abstract bibtex Results from photooxidation of aromatic compounds in a reaction chamber show that a substantial fraction of the organic aerosol mass is composed of polymers. This polymerization results from reactions of carbonyls and their hydrates. After aging for more than 20 hours, about 50% of the particle mass consists of polymers with a molecular mass up to 1000 daltons. This results in a lower volatility of this secondary organic aerosol and a higher aerosol yield than a model using vapor pressures of individual organic species would predict.
