Formation of secondary organic aerosols from isoprene and its gas-phase oxidation products through reaction with hydrogen peroxide
AbstractAerosols produced over forests impair visibility and may affect climate by scattering and absorbing solar radiation and by serving as cloud condensation nuclei. Here, we introduce, to our knowledge, a new route to secondary organic aerosol formation from isoprene and its gas-phase oxidation products, methacrolein and methacrylic acid, namely, multiphase acid-catalysed oxidation with hydrogen peroxide, a perfect analogue to atmospheric sulphate formation. We demonstrate that the formation of major secondary organic aerosol components that are present in natural forest aerosols collected at K-puszta, Hungary, during the summer of 2003, namely, 2-methyltetrols and 2,3-dihydroxymethacrylic acid, can be explained by this mechanism.
