“…Ozonolysis reaction kinetics have been studied, including the gas-phase loss rate of ozone, the condensed-phase loss rate of the organic compound, and the effects of chemical mixtures, particle morphology, and physical state on those loss rates (Moise and Rudich, 2002;Morris et al, 2002;Smith et al, 2003;Katrib et al, 2005a, b;Knopf et al, 2005;Ziemann, 2005). Product identification and yields resulting from ozonolysis, as well as the associated reaction mechanisms, have been investigated (Katrib et al, 2004;Hearn and Smith, 2004;Zahardis et al, 2006a, b;Hung et al, 2005;Ziemann, 2005;Reynolds et al, 2006). Ozone-induced changes in particle properties, including hygroscopicity (Asad et al, 2004), CCN activity (Broekhuizen et al, 2004), and density (Katrib et al, 2005b), have been quantified.…”
