Measuring rates of reaction in supercooled organic particles with implications for atmospheric aerosol
Literature Information
John D. Hearn, Geoffrey D. Smith
The kinetics of heterogeneous reactions involving supercooled organic droplets is reported for the first time. Reactions between ozone and internally-mixed sub-micrometre particles containing an unsaturated alkenoic acid, oleic acid, and an n-alkanoic acid, myristic acid, were studied as a simple model for the oxidation of meat-cooking aerosol. The reactions were followed by monitoring the rate of oleic acid loss using an Aerosol CIMS (chemical ionization mass spectrometry) instrument for real-time particle analysis. Evidence of as much as 32 °C supercooling at room temperature was observed depending on particle composition. FTIR spectra of the aerosol also demonstrate features indicative of supercooling. Particles in which crystallization was induced by cooling below room temperature demonstrated decreased reactivity by a factor of 12 compared to supercooled particles of the same composition. This drastic difference in reactivity could have significant implications for the lifetimes of reactive species in ambient aerosol as well as for the accurate source apportionment of particulate matter.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
