Ternary nucleation applied to gas to particle conversion

摘要: Abstract Atmospheric aerosol formation involving three gaseous components is considered with an emphasis on systems in which one component water. Analytic methods discussed qualitatively are physical equilibrium phase diagram analysis and heteromolecular nucleation. The possibility of chemical reactions before or after nucleation considered. applications discussed. Additional experimental measurements thermodynamic parameters, such as the vapor pressure low volatile products surface tension ternary strongly recommended for further studies aerosols.
