Secondary organic addition

Much of the energy deposited in a sample by a laser pulse or beam ablates as neutral material and not ions. Ordinarily, the neutral substances are simply pumped away, and the ions are analyzed by the mass spectrometer. To increase the number of ions formed, there is often a second ion source to produce ions from the neutral materials, thereby enhancing the total ion yield. This secondary or additional mode of ionization can be effected by electrons (electron ionization, El), reagent gases (chemical ionization. Cl), a plasma torch, or even a second laser pulse. The additional ionization is often organized as a pulse (electrons, reagent gas, or laser) that follows very shortly after the... 

The addition of some metal ions, such as Mg2+,Zn2+, In3+,orGa3+, and some organic additives, such as 2-thiophene, 2-methylfuran, or benzene, to propylene carbonate-LiC104 improved the coulombic efficiency for lithium cycling [112]. Lithium deposition on a lithium surface covered with a chemically stable, thin and tight layer which was formed by the addition of HF to electrolyte can suppress the lithium dendrite formation in secondary lithium batteries [113]. 

The OSM MAP can be effectively applied to most of the organic additives for polyolefins. Its validity has been tested by comparing the OSM with traditional reflux extraction procedures for primary AOs (phenols), secondary AOs (aliphatic and aromatic phosphites ... 

PtCIfil2 forms colloidal particles when sonicated with 20 kHz frequency under acidic conditions [120]. Reduction [121] of Pt (II) has been reported which proceeded by reduction of secondary reducing radicals formed by hydrogen abstraction from organic additions with OH radicals and H atoms. Pt (IV) has been reported to reduce to zero-valent metal in the presence of various kinds of surfactants [122]. The reduction occurs in two steps ... 

Since the effects on the spleen and bone marrow are secondary to the hemolytic effects of 2-butoxy-ethanol, and since a number of studies performed histological examination of lymphoreticular organs, additional studies on lymphoreticular effects do not appear to be useful. However, the potential for immunotoxicity of 2-butoxyethanol has not been sufficiently studied. A battery of immunotoxicity tests conducted by all routes, but particularly by the inhalation and dermal routes (the most relevant routes for humans) would help to determine whether 2-butoxyethanol is immunotoxic. 

In addition to the technical developments the scientific applications of chambers are being expanded, for example, the current understanding of secondary organic aerosol formation has been developed principally from environmental chamber studies and chambers have been used even more recently to investigate photolysis processes under real atmospheric conditions. Such new scientific applications are often linked to new technical analytical and other technical developments and environmental chambers offer a perfect platform for testing environmental monitors. 

Similar to the partitioning in the water column, SVOCs can also partition through an absorption process in addition to physical adsorption onto the surface of particles. SVOCs would dissolve in the organic matter (OM) in the atmosphere, which exists both as primary (POA) and as secondary organic aerosols (SOA) (Lohmann and Lammel 2004). Kqa absorption model has been proposed by Pankow (1994) and Finizio et al. (1997). The octanol-air partitioning coefficient (Kqa) can be used to predict Kp with the assumption that the predominant distribution process is absorption (Harner and Bidleman 1998). The relationship between Kp and Kqa is... 

In addition to the important role biogenic terpenes play in gas-hase chemistry, their impact also extends to heterogeneous air chemistry. Although Went (1960) linked the formation of the blue haze over coniferous forests to the biogenic emission of 20 monoterpenes over 40 years ago, it was not until recently that terpenes received their due attention with respect to their role in secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation. O Dowd et al. (2002) reported that nucleation events over a boreal forest were driven by the condensation of terpene oxidation products. Formaldehyde (HCHO) is a high-yield product of isoprene oxidation. The short photochemical lifetime of HCHO allows the observation of this trace gas to help constrain isoprene emissions (Shim et al. 2005).
