Zusammenfassung |
A quartz crystal microbalance apparatus has been used to measure the room
temperature uptake of water vapour by thin films of oleic acid as a function
of relative humidity, both before and following exposure of the films to
various partial pressures of gas phase ozone. A rapid increase in the
water-sorbing ability of the film is observed as its exposure to ozone is
increased, followed by a plateau region in which additional water is taken
up more gradually. In this fully-processed region the mass of water taken up
by the film is about 4 times that of the unprocessed film. Infrared spectra
of the films, measured after variable exposures to ozone, show dramatic
increases in both the "free" and hydrogen-bonded O-H stretching regions,
and a decrease in the intensity of olefinic features. These results are
consistent with the formation of an oxygenated polymeric product or
products, as well as the gas phase products previously identified. |
