Total OH reactivity for gasoline vapor was measured from 4 kinds of gasoline for the first time by comparative reactivity method(CRM) using proton transfer reaction mass spectrometer(PTR-MS).Compositions of 56 PAMS(photochemical assessment monitoring station) nonmethane hydrocarbons(NMHCs) were measured for both liquid and headspace of gasoline. We found high abundance of alkenes and aromatics in gasoline. The calculated OH reactivity derived from quantified NMHCs speciation accounted for only 57 ? 4% of total reactivity obtained from CRM method. N-Alkenes, only 6 wt% in liquid gasoline, contributed to 70% of calculated reactivity. We assume that the undetected branched alkenes are the possible reason for the missing reactivity. We suggest that the priority of gasoline quality improvement is to reduce alkenes content in gasoline in term of reactivity-based control.展开更多

In this article, the radiated fields derived in terms of plana wave spectrumintegral are used as standard, and the error source of the replacement by complex ray fields is found. Withdiscussions on the error characteristics of this CIUN approximation, conclusions are drawn which are expected to be helpful in applications of CRM.展开更多
