Zusammenfassung |
Dilute aqueous solutions of the atmospheric organic surfactant sodium
decanoate have been studied using surface sensitive X-ray photoelectron
spectroscopy combined with synchrotron radiation. We studied the
decanoate/decanoic acid speciation and preferential adsorption at the
vapor–liquid interface, and the responses to mixing in solution with some of
the most common atmospheric inorganic ions, Na+,
NH4+, Cl−, and
SO42−. We observe little or
no influence of Na+, Cl−, or
SO42− ions, on neither the relative speciation nor the
individual adsorption properties of decanoate and decanoic acid. In
particular, no significant salting-out effect due to common Na+
cations of the organic and inorganic salts was observed for these solutions.
On the other hand, mixing with NH4+ cations resulted in a pronounced
surface enhancement of decanoic acid, which is attributed to surface specific
acid–base chemistry. These changes in surface/bulk partitioning and surface
speciation may significantly affect properties of aqueous droplets containing
decanoate/decanoic acid, and potential implications for several processes
critical to the climate effects of atmospheric aerosols are discussed. |
