In this study, particles emitted from laboratory stove combustion of the raw powder coals were analyzed for morphologies and chemical compositions by using transmission electron microscopy （TEM） coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry （EDX）. The coal burning-derived individual particles were classified into two groups： carbonaceous particles （including soot aggregates and organic particles） and non-carbonaceous particles （including sulfate, mineral and metal particles）. The non-carbonaceous particles, which constituted a majority of the coal burning-derived emissions, were subdivided into Si-rich, S-rich, K-rich, Ca-rich, and Fe-rich particles according to the elemental compositions. The Si-rich, S-rich and K-rich particles are commonly observed in the coal burning emission. The proportions for particles of different types exhibit obvious coal-issue dependence. Burning of coal with high ash yield could emit more non-carbonaceous particles, and burning of coal with high sulfur content can emit more S-rich particles. By comparing the S-rich particles from this coal burning experiment with those in the atmosphere, we draw a conclusion that some S-rich particles in the atmosphere in China could be mainly sourced from coal combustion.展开更多

Four major types of S-rich particles, including sccondary CaSO4 particles （mainly observed in summer）, S-rich mineral particles （SRM）, S-rich water droplets （SRW） and （C, O, S）-rich particles （COS） were identified. We lbund the differcnt typical morphologies and element distributions of S-rich particles and considered that （C, O, S）-rich parliclcs had two major mixing states in different seasons. On the basis of the S-rich particles＂ relative abundances. S concentrations and their relationships with PM2.5 as well as the seasonal comparison, wc revealed that the S-participated formation degrees of SRM and SRW would enhance with increasing PM2.5 concentration. Moreover, C-rich matter and sulfate had seasonally differcnt but significant impacts on the formation of COS.展开更多

The shapes of copper microcrystal depend on additives. Cubic copper particles were observed when the inorganic salt containing Cl^-,such as NH4Cl,NaCl,or KCl,was added into the reaction system. By combined use of NH4Cl and polyvinylpyrrolidone （PVP）,the proportion of cubic copper particle number exceeded 90%,and the particle size is 0.1-0.5μrn. While other inorganic salt without Cl^-,such as Na2SO4 or （NH4）2SO4,had little effect on the shapes of the copper particles. The growth mechanism of metallic copper crystal in aqueous solution was analyzed. It is suggested that the formation of cubic copper crystals is ascribed to the selective adsorption of Cl^-on copper crystal （100） faces.展开更多
