Experiment

Name: Browne Lab_20230810_Hydrogen Peroxide/Cyclomethicone 5_Hydroxyl radical_Ammonium sulfate_E3
Date: 2023-08-10

Organization
Browne Lab

Chamber
1-White (1W)

Experiment Set
D5 oxidation ammonium sulfate seed

Goals
Investigate SOA formation from D5 oxidation with ammonium sulfate seeds with CIMS, SMPS. Filter samples were collected.

Summary
The siloxanol was the major gas-phase product, small amounts of SOA were formed.

Additional Notes
Chamber bag volume is changed several times to maintain the pressure in the chamber.
