“…The origin of alkanes and cycloalkanes in diesel emission is mainly attributed to unburned fuel and/or lubricating oil (Tobias et al, 2001;Sakurai et al, 2003;Dallmann et al, 2014). Aliphatic groups are commonly observed in emissions of off-road diesel engines (Kirchner et al, 2003;Popovicheva et al, 2014Popovicheva et al, , 2015b, as well as in modern internal combustion engines (Popovicheva et al, 2015a) operating in various cycles and at different loads.…”

“…Additional strong features correspond to the C n -and C n H -(n = 1-9) series with the hydrogenated carbon cluster C n H -being more intense compared to C n -when n is an even number (except in the case of n = 1). Such C n -carbon cluster series were observed by laser ablation particle mass spectrometry in petroleum fuel, biodiesel diffusion flames (Maricq et al, 2011), and in spark generated soot (Kirchner et al, 2003). C n -(n = 2-4) fragments were considered to be a marker for elemental carbon (EC) in aerosol mass spectrometry (AMS) data (Pagels et al, 2013).…”

“…However, mass spectrometry techniques can provide detailed molecular and fragment identifications making it a valuable complementary analytical tool in aid of particles characterization. Different mass spectrometry techniques have been used in the past for diesel and biodiesel exhausts analyses, including Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) (Pedersen et al, 1999;Casal et al, 2014), Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) (Kirchner et al, 2003), Thermal Desorption Molecular Beam Mass Spectrometry (TDMBMS) (Tobias et al, 2001;Sakurai et al, 2003) and Laser Desorption Mass Spectrometry (LDMS) (Moldanovà et al, 2009;Maricq et al, 2011). Among these mass spectrometry techniques, SIMS stands out because of its high mass resolution, although it suffers from large fragmentation subsequent to ion impact.…”

“…For instance, SIMS and Single Particle Mass Spectrometry (SPMS) coupled to FTIR were used to characterize the surface composition of diesel particles (Kirchner et al, 2003). The general agreement between chemical bonds and molecular fragments has been demonstrated by quantifying the organic mass for many ambient and laboratory aerosols (Russell et al, 2009).…”

The growing concern about air quality and the impact exhaust particles can have on the environment has resulted in the increased use of alternative fuels. A sampling campaign from a conventional heavy diesel engine operated in typical transient cycle or steady-state condition, and running on diesel, 30% biodiesel in diesel, and 100% biodiesel was carried out. The particulate composition was characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Two-step Laser Mass Spectrometry (L2MS), Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS), thermo-optical analysis, and capillary electrophoresis. Elemental carbon is demonstrated to decrease from diesel to 100% biodiesel, in agreement with the evolution of aromatic bands and the MS abundance of C n -fragments, while organic carbon exhibits a constant level irrespective of the working regime. Aliphatic, aromatic, carboxyl, carbonyl, hydroxyl functionalities, and nitro compounds are found to depend on the engine-working regime. Mass spectra are mainly characterized by alkyl fragments (C n H 2n+1 + ), associated to normal and branched alkanes, PAHs and their alkylated derivatives. The addition of biodiesel to diesel changes the particulate composition towards more oxygenated constituents, such as carbonyl groups attributed to methyl ester CH 3 O + fragments of unburned biodiesel. Fuel-specific fragments have been identified, such as C 3 H 7 O + for diesel, and C 2 H 3 O 2 + and CH 3 O -for biodiesel. Nitrogenized compounds are revealed by -NO 2 functionalities and N-containing fragments. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was successfully applied to discriminate the engine operating conditions, with a higher variance given by the fuel, thus allowing to better evaluate the environmental impacts of alternative energy source emissions.

“…SIMS and SNMS allow depth profile analysis with a depth resolution in the low-nanometre range of hard coatings [93], atmospheric aerosol particles (with aerodynamic diameters on the order of 25-200 nm) [94], nano-objects (nanowhiskers consist of fibres of about 2-nm diameter) [95] and nanoscale multilayers [96][97][98][99][100]. Figure 5 shows the depth profiles obtained by SNMS for a triple-layer system used for gas sensor microdevices (Fig.…”

Inorganic mass spectrometry as a tool for characterisation at the nanoscale

et al. 2009

Inorganic mass spectrometry techniques may offer great potential for the characterisation at the nanoscale, because they provide unique elemental information of great value for a better understanding of processes occurring at nanometre-length dimensions. Two main groups of techniques are reviewed: those allowing direct solid analysis with spatial resolution capabilities, i.e. lateral (imaging) and/or indepth profile, and those for the analysis of liquids containing colloids. In this context, the present capabilities of widespread elemental mass spectrometry techniques such as laser ablation coupled with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), glow discharge mass spectrometry and secondary ion/neutral mass spectrometry are described and compared through selected examples from various scientific fields. On the other hand, approaches for the characterisation (i.e. size, composition, presence of impurities, etc.) of colloidal solutions containing nanoparticles by the well-established ICP-MS technique are described. In this latter case, the capabilities derived from the on-line coupling of separation techniques such as field-flow fractionation and liquid chromatography with ICP-MS are also assessed. Finally, appealing trends using ICP-MS for bioassays with biomolecules labelled with nanoparticles are delineated.

On-line micro-and nanoparticle mass spectrometry has evolved into a prominent analytical method for the characterization of airborne particles, particle populations and aerosols over the recent years, driven by essential developments in instrumentation, data evaluation and validation. In this tutorial, the fundamental aspects of the technology and methodology for qualitative and quantitative on-line aerosol particle analysis are discussed. Specific properties of the on-line mass spectrometric instrumentation for particle analysis are described, combined with a discussion of basic differences of the instruments and demands for future improvements of instruments and data analysis techniques. Optimized technology and methodology in particle analysis is expected to lead to essential growth of the knowledge and to quality improvement of the description of atmospheric processes and health effects in the future.
