Characterization of iodine particles with Volatilization-Humidification Tandem Differential Mobility Analyser (VH-TDMA), Raman and SEM techniques

Particles formed upon photo-oxidation of CH 2 I 2 and particles of I 2 O 5 and HIO 3 have been studied using a Volatilisation and Humidification Tandem Differential Mobility Analyser (VH-TDMA) system. Volatilization and hygroscopic behaviour have been investigated as function of temperature (from 25 to 400 ° C), humidity (RH from 80 to 98%), initial aerosol sizes (from 27 to 100 nm mobility diameter) and in nitrogen or air as the sheath gasses. The volatility behaviour of particles formed upon photo-oxidation of CH 2 I 2 is more similar to that of HIO 3 particles in a filtered sheath air than in nitrogen, with the particle shrinkage occurring at 190°C and accompanied by hygroscopic growth. Despite its high solubility, HIO 3 was found not to be hygroscopic at room temperature with no significant growth displayed until the thermodenuder temperature reached 200 ° C or above when the particles have transformed into I 2 O 5 . Diiodopentaoxide (I 2 O 5 ) particles exhibit relatively low hygroscopic growth factors of 1.2-2 in the humidity range investigated. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) of particles formed upon photo-oxidation of CH 2 I 2 shows that their primary elemental components were gas (ambient air or dry nitrogen); (III) Raman spectra of the aerosols; (IV) Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis of the particles formed upon photo-oxidation of diiodiomethane with ozone. The results for the three systems have been critically compared.


Introduction
Aerosols are known to have direct and indirect effects on Earth's in-coming and out-going solar radiation, resulting in a radiative forcing which is negative (cooling effect) (IPCC, 2001). In addition, the aerosols influence the albedo of the Earth by acting as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and thereby affecting the formation of clouds (Twomey et al., 1984). The most likely mechanisms for new particle formation in the troposphere appear to be binary nucleation of sulphuric acid and water vapour, and ternary nucleation of sulphuric acid ammonia and water vapour. Kulmala et al., 2000;Napari et al., 2002;Van Dingenen and Raes, 1993;Wyslouzil et al., 1991). However, intense nucleation bursts have been observed in the marine/coastal boundary layer, and appear to be associated with the presence of gaseous iodine species (O'Dowd et al., 1998;O'Dowd et al., 2002a;O'Dowd et al., 2002b). Laboratory studies on the photo-oxidation of iodocarbons (CH 2 I 2 and CF 3 I) in presence of ozone demonstrate the possibility of generating nucleation-mode particles from condensable iodine vapours (CIVs) in the absence of sulphur species (Burkholder et al., 2003;Hoffmann et al., 2001;Jimenez et al., 2003;O'Dowd et al., 2002c). Measurements of molecular iodine in the marine boundary layer (MBL) (Saiz-Lopez and Plane, 2004) and laboratory studies on the photo-oxidation of macroalgae emissions (Laminaria) reveal the possibility that molecular iodine in the presence of ozone and light may also contribute to new particle formation (McFiggans et al., 2004). In both cases, photo-oxidation of diiodiomethane and molecular iodine, the particles formed show very similar composition. (McFiggans et al.,
Hygroscopicity is a key parameter in the study of growth, visibility, cloud activation, reactivity and atmospheric lifetime of aerosols (Ansari and Pandis, 2000) but may also be used to differentiate between particle compositions, provided the component compounds/mixtures differ in hygroscopic growth. During the PARFORCE field campaign, the newly formed particles (modes 8-10 nm) showed low growth hygroscopic factors (between 1.0 and 1.1) (Vakeva et al., 2002). Particles produced upon photo-oxidation of molecular iodine with O 3 showed growth factors between 1.0 (for 60 nm particles) to 1.2 (for 20 nm particles) at RH = 90% (McFiggans et al., 2004). The mobility diameter of particles formed upon photo-oxidation of CH 2 I 2 in dry conditions (RH< 23 %) decreased when exposed to humid air, reaching a minimum growth factor of 0.66. In contrast particles produced in humid air (RH> 65%) showed a constant growth factor of ca. 1.0 when exposed to 90% RH. So far this intriguing behaviour has been explained in terms of fractal structure for particles produced in dry conditions (Jimenez et al., 2003).
The low growth factors and the particles density, 3.5 g/cm 3 , seem to designate I 2 O 4 as the most suitable candidate (Jimenez et al., 2003), however a definitive assignment to the particle composition has not been established. The volatilization-humidification tandem differential mobility analyser (VH-TDMA) (Johnson et al., 2005) provides a useful technique for the characterisation of physico-chemical properties of aerosols and in reducing the range of candidates for the composition of an unknown aerosol (Rader and McMurry, 1986). The instrument combines the possibility of differentiating on the basis of the particles' growth response to humidification (which depends on the chemical properties of the aerosol), and of investigating the aerosol's volatilisation characteristics.
The present work investigates: (I) the hygroscopic growth and volatility of diiodopentoxide (I 2 O 5 ) and iodic acid (HIO 3 ) for which no measurements have been reported in the literature to date; (II) the volatilization and hygroscopic behaviour of particles formed upon photooxidation of diiodiomethane with ozone under controlled conditions. The above physicochemical properties are reported as a function of temperature (ranging from 25 to 350°C), size (from 27 nm up to 140 nm), humidity (from 80 to 98 % RH) and carrier gas (ambient air or dry nitrogen); (III) Raman spectra of the aerosols; (IV) Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis of the particles formed upon photo-oxidation of diiodiomethane with ozone. The results for the three systems have been critically compared.

VH-TDMA
The volatility and hygroscopic tandem differential mobility analysis (VH-TDMA) system was used to characterize the physico-chemical properties of iodine aerosols. This system, shown schematically in Fig. 1 allows determination of the effect on an aerosol's size distribution of heating, and subsequently humidification. These physical properties, especially the response to humidity, provide direct information about how the aerosol would respond to different ambient conditions. It is also possible to make inferences about chemical components and composition from the extent of hygroscopic growth, the deliquescence point, the temperature at which volatile components evaporate, and the size of the aerosol after volatile components are removed.
The design of the VH-TDMA used in this study has been described in detail elsewhere (Johnson et al., 2005;Johnson et al., 2004a;Johnson et al., 2004b). Dry filtered aerosol is first passed through a differential mobility analyzer (DMA) to produce a size-classified aerosol fraction. This then passes through a heater where volatile components are removed through vaporization or decomposition to gaseous species.
A portion of the resulting heat-treated and charged aerosol is then examined for changes in particle diameter using a second DMA. The remaining portion of the volatilizationconditioned aerosol is examined in terms of its hygroscopic behavior using a humidification aerosol conditioner and a third DMA.
The VH-TDMA system was flow calibrated using a primary volume flow standard (Sensidyne Gilibrator-2 bubble flow meter) prior to commencement and flows were checked daily. Particle sizing accuracy was also checked using NIST traceable standard 102 nm polystyrene latex (PSL) spheres (Duke Scientific Corporation), injected downstream of the sheath air filter of the initial classifier stage after bypassing the saturator and allowing the humidifier column to dry. This method has the advantage of allowing the sizing accuracy of the second and third stages to be checked without changing the instrument plumbing configuration.
Humidity in the humidification column was tested throughout the experiment by examining the growth of dry NaCl aerosol in the VH-TDMA. The aerosol was produced by atomizing a NaCl solution and passing it through a silica gel diffusion dryer.
Few additions were made to the original design (Johnson et al., 2004b). First, in order to achieve relative humidity higher than 90%, a bypass line was added to DMA3. The limiting factor for the humidity was the mixing ratio between the dry air coming from the thermodenuder and the humid air coming from the saturator. Without the bypass line this ratio is equal to the ratio between the polydisperse inlet and sheath air inlet. With the addition of the bypass this ratio could be increased to 1:20 which enabled us to achieve relative humidities up to nearly 98%. Second, to be able to rapidly change the humidity in the humidifier, a bypass line was added to the saturator.

Aerosol Generation and Treatment
Aerosols were produced in two different ways: 1) by nebulising a water solution of the desired components and 2) by photochemical reaction of CH 2 I 2 with O 3 .

2.2.1
Nebulisation of a water solution HIO 3 and NaCl aerosols were generated by a three jet Collision nebuliser (BGI Incorporated) from aqueous solutions prepared with ultra pure deionised water. The generated particles were first dried in a diffusion dryer of silica gel (RH ~ 5%), then sent to the first DMA.
Commercial I 2 O 5 usually exists in its partially or fully hydrated form as  (Bahl and Partington, 1935) and molecular iodine (I 2 ) with HNO 3 . Note also that I 2 O 4 reacts slowly to form HIO 3 in water though is not decomposed by moist air (Daehlie and Kjekshus, 1964b).
This reaction scheme evinces the impossibility of producing I 2 O 4 particles with the nebuliser since I 2 O 4 would be converted to HIO 3 in water and once heated in the thermo-denuder it would give I 2 O 5 . Upon heating I 2 O 4 decomposes into I 2 O 5 and iodine, which is lost by sublimation (Daehlie and Kjekshus, 1964a;Greenwood and Earnshaw, 1997) 5 Therefore the reference systems studied in this work are HIO 3 and I 2 O 5 .

Photochemical reaction of CH 2 I 2 with O 3
In order to investigate the volatile and hygroscopic properties of I 2 O 4 a photochemical reactor chamber was designed (Fig. 2). Particles were generated by photolysis of CH 2 I 2 in the presence of O 3 and UV-light. The laminar-flow stainless-steel reactor had a diameter of 11 cm and length of 102 cm, and was equipped with 12 inlets/outlets (4 along the external cylinder and 4 at each end of it) for the introduction of reactants and sampling of aerosol at different length of the cylinder (corresponding to different residence times). The fluorescence lamp (Philips TLD36W/08 with λ max~3 65 nm (300 < λ < 460 nm)) was sealed in the cylinder and turned on during the experiment. The CH 2 I 2 was evaporated over low heat, and the vapour carried into a Teflon/Tedlar bag using a known flow rate of nitrogen. Concentration of CH 2 I 2 in the reactor was 20ppm. Ozone was produced by an ozone generator from dry air, scrubbed by passing it through charcoal. Its concentration was tested using ozone strips, and then diluted with dry filtered air so that its concentration was 230ppb. These concentrations were chosen to maximise the particle count (>10 6 cm -3 required for analysis of monodisperse fractions of the distribution). The total flow rate through the reactor was 3 lpm. This corresponded to a total residence time of around 3 minutes. When larger particles were desired, an additional chamber of larger volume was employed to allow the particles more time to grow before entering the VH-TDMA system.

Raman Spectroscopy
The Raman spectra were acquired using a Renishaw Model 1000 microprobe spectrometer.
The system includes an Olympus microscope to visualise the sample and to direct the exciting light onto the sample and collect the scattered light, an optical filter to remove the Rayleigh scattering line, in addition to a single diffraction grating and a change-couples device as the detector. The microscope is equipped with three interchangeable objective lenses with magnification 50, 20 and 10 respectively. Typically the 50 times objective was used. Raman spectra were excited with radiation at 633 nm from a Spectra-Physics Model 127 He-Ne laser with a maximum power of 10mW. The spectra were recorded with a resolution of 4cm -1 in the spectral region 4000-200 cm -1 and acquisitions were repeated to improve the signal-to-noise ratio.

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)
Photooxidation product was collected for SEM analysis by drawing aerosol from the reaction chamber through a 0.5 mm diameter orifice at sonic speeds onto an impaction plate which consisted of a piece of cleaned silicon wafer. The resulting sample was stored in dry nitrogen in a sealed container prior to coating, for SEM analysis, with a thin conductive layer of carbon using a Cressington high vacuum evaporative coater.
The treated sample, and a similarly treated standard consisting of commercial I 2 O 5 , were analysed at 10kV accelerating voltage by energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) on an FEI Quanta 200 SEM fitted with an EDAX thin-window X-ray detector and microanalysis system.

Nebulisation of a water solution (HIO 3 /I 2 O 5 aerosols)
Volatility/hygroscopicity analyses were carried out on 27 nm, 75 nm (shown on Fig. 3) and 102 nm HIO 3 particles in nitrogen as a sheath and carrier gas. The particles' mobility diameters after volatilization and after subsequent humidification were measured as the temperature was stepped up to a maximum of 350°C, in increments of 5-20°C, with the smaller increments employed over periods of rapid shrinkage.
The temperature behaviour in N 2 shows rapid reduction in mobility diameter beginning at 210°C (region I), a slight plateau between 240 and 270°C (region II), followed again by swift shrinkage (region III) until only a non-volatile residue remains. The residue particles comprise <1% of the initial particle volume, and occur at such low concentration that the hygroscopic peaks cannot be distinguished from background noise, precluding determination of the nature of the residue particles by their growth factor. For larger initial mobility diameters, the temperature at which only residue remains is higher, following an apparently linear trend given by T c The volatility behaviour was similar in both filtered air (see full line in figure 4) and N 2 , although in air the volatilization steps occur at lower temperatures, with rapid reduction in mobility diameter beginning at 190°C, a slight plateau at 205-230°C, and volatilisation complete by 290°C.
The onset of rapid shrinkage is accompanied by the appearance of a shoulder on the higherdiameter side of the peak in the hygroscopicity scans, which splits off to form a second peak of higher growth (the 'hygroscopic peak'); there is also an increase in the growth of the original peak (the 'non-hygroscopic peak') of approximately 10%.
These volatility characteristics in region I have been associated with the dehydration of HIO 3 via the intermediate product HIO 3 ⋅I 2 O 5 , and, as the temperature increases, to I 2 O 5 . The observed hygroscopic growth seems to correlate with the formation of I 2 O 5 at 210°C. As the hygroscopic growth is correlated to I 2 O 5 , the more HIO 3 is converted to I 2 O 5 the more hygroscopic material there is available and the hygroscopic growth factor (G h ) increases. In region II all of the HIO 3 is converted into I 2 O 5 and G h remains constant. The temperature is still not sufficiently high to induce rapid evaporation of I 2 O 5 and we observe a slight plateau in the volatility curve. Above 270°C, in region III, I 2 O 5 starts to evaporate rapidly until it totally evaporates at 336°C.
On the other hand since the differences in density are such that a HIO 3 particle would be 5% greater in diameter than a I 2 O 5 particle containing equivalent iodine, the rise in nonhygroscopic growth near 210°C may be partly due to re-hydration of I 2 O 5 back to HIO 3 in the humidifying column.
Hygroscopic growth data for HIO 3 particles was collected in the RH range of 80-98%, using N 2 as the sheath gas. Despite its high solubility, HIO 3 was found not to be hygroscopic at room temperature; no significant growth was displayed until the thermodenuder temperature reached 200°C or above. At 223°C, 88 nm particles exhibit hygroscopic growth at humidities above 89%.
The measured growth factors were low for an ionic solid. This is consistent with previous observations of associated species such as (HIO 3 ) 2 , (HIO 3 ) 3 and [H(IO 3 ) 2 ]in concentrated HIO 3 solutions (Greenwood and Earnshaw, 1997;Paitnik, 2003), which would result in a higher vapour pressure than would be found above a dissociated salt solution. Double peaks were generally observed in the hygroscopicity scans, with one peak showing little or no growth (G = 0.95-1.1), and a second peak exhibiting humidity-dependent growth (G = 1.3-2).
These will be referred to as the non-hygroscopic and hygroscopic peaks respectively, with growth factors G nh and G h . Hygroscopic growth is only observed at high temperature (T~ 200 °C or above) While only a limited number of growth measurements were taken with filtered air as the sheath instead of N 2 , the results indicate that the hygroscopic growth factor is independent of sheath composition.

Photochemical reaction of CH 2 I 2 with O 3
The volatility characteristics as well as the temperature dependent hygroscopic growth were also determined for particles generated in the nucleation chamber via photolysis of CH 2 I 2 in the presence of O 3 , and are presented on Figure 4. Previous studies (Burkholder et al., 2003;Cox and Coker, 1983;Hoffmann et al., 2001;Jimenez et al., 2003)  Particles exiting the photochemical reactor were collected over a period of several hours (2-3 hr).
The volatility behaviour of these nucleated particles is similar to that of HIO 3 particles in a filtered-air sheath (see full line in Fig. 4). Three regions in the volatility curve can also be observed, but the width of these regions is much narrower than in the previous case. I 2 O 4 particles first reduction in size appears at 190°C (region I) to be followed by a small plateau from 205-220°C (region II), and with a rapid shrinkage (region III) up to temperatures of 290°C where all of the particle evaporates.
Similarly to the previous case, with HIO 3 /I 2 O 5 particles, hygroscopic peaks were only observed at high temperatures and humidities, and double peaks were present, a hygroscopic (G h ) and a nonhygroscopic (G nh ) one. Particle shrinkage at 190°C was accompanied by an increase in G nh of approximately 10 %. While this may suggest that the particles are either formed as HIO 3 or convert to it within the chamber, this is not necessarily the case, as I 2 O 4 also transforms into I 2 O 5 at temperatures above 190°C (Daehlie and Kjekshus, 1964a).
While the hygroscopic peak in the HIO 3 /I 2 O 5 system appeared since the onset of shrinkage in region I, in this system the hygroscopic peak only appeared in region II for temperatures above 205°C. The growth factors were again low, generally agreeing with the HIO 3 /I 2 O 5 growth model predictions (see appendix) to within 3%

Raman analysis
The particles were collected and placed between quartz plates for the spectra acquisition. oxyacids. (Dalziel et al., 1976;Dasent and Waddington, 1960;Dasent and Waddington, 1963;Ellestad et al., 1981;Sherwood and Turner, 1970;Sunder and Vikis, 1987;Sunder et al., 1985) However, the comparison is not straightforward, since the aerosols were formed and exposed to ambient condition (RH ~ 30-50 %) while many references spectra were taken under vacuum. In addition the nucleating particles are in the range of nanometers while the references were compounds in liquid phase or large crystals. Furthermore the literature data are not always in agreement in the assignment of spectral bands.
All the spectra presented in Fig. 5 are characterized by intense bands between 800-700cm -1 assigned to symmetric and anti-symmetric I=O and IO 2 stretching modes. The spectrum of I 2 O 5 powder (Aldrich) is shown in Fig. 5 (dark plot); the compound, once exposed to ambient air is rapidly converted to its partially hydrate form  (Durig et al., 1965;Sherwood and Turner, 1970). The spectrum shows a fine structure that gives indication of a certain degree of crystallinity, while the aerosols produced by atomisation of the water solution do not show fine structure at low frequencies (Fig. 5). This could to be correlated to the water content (see also Fig. 6) which is abundant in the later case, despite the fact that all samples have been exposed to similar ambient condition and size of the particles (low degree of order for small particles). In addition, particles in the nanometer size range may absorb water more easily than larger particles, due to their high surface area.
HIO 3 , red plot, has very broad bands, which may indicate an amorphous or pseudo-liquid state. Comparison with the literature (Durig et al., 1965;Sherwood and Turner, 1970) shows that HIO 3 particles have mixed features characteristic of a high concentrated solution of HIO 3 (bands at 823, 776, 757, 739 cm -1 ) and a crystalline form (bands at 765, 728 cm -1 ). Bands at 776 and 757 cm -1 have also been observed in NaNO 3 spectra and are associated to the presence of dissociated iodate ions (Dasent and Waddington, 1960;Durig et al., 1965). Figure   6 suggests that these ions might be present because of the large amount of free water with broad bands at 3350, 3100 cm -1 assigned to anti-symmetric and symmetric stretching and a band at 1660cm -1 due to bending mode. The less intense peak at ~ 2900cm -1 has been assigned to H-O stretching of undissociated H-O in HIO 3 . (Dasent and Waddington, 1960;Durig et al., 1965) I 2 O 5 particles, green plot in Fig. 5, show minor broadening with respect to HIO 3 particles.
This could be explained in term of less water absorbed and a more organized structure. The H-O stretching of undissociated HIO 3 is present at ~ 2900 cm -1 , water bands at ~ 3100 and 3025 cm -1 are present. Bands at 739 and 728 cm -1 are associated with crystalline HIO 3 . I 2 O 5 particles formed upon heating HIO 3 in the thermodenuder at ca. 200C mainly exhibit features of crystalline HIO 3 .
Particles formed upon photo-oxidation of diiodomethane in the presence of ozone have also been collected and analysed, blue plot (Figs. 5 and 6). The spectrum surprisingly presents bands at 756, 739 and 728 cm -1 typical of crystalline HIO 3 . However the stretching mode of HIO 3 is not visible and little water seems to be present. The typical stretching modes of free water are relatively weak and the bending mode at 1660cm -1 is absent (Fig. 6). The intense stretching bands that should identify crystalline I 2 O 4 or I 2 O 5 were not present. Figure 7. shows the I 2 O 5 standard and photooxidation product comparison EDX spectra. The standard was used to calibrate the system for relative X-ray intensities of iodine and oxygen.

SEM ANALYSIS
The photooxidized sample was found to contain iodine/oxygen in the mass ratio 4.03 with a 10% error, which compares well with the expected value of 3.97 for I 2 O 4 . Besides X-ray peaks for oxygen and iodine, only peaks from the carbon coating and the silicon substrate were present in the X-ray spectra, indicating that no other elements were present at levels above about 0.2 weight%.

Conclusions
Iodine aerosol particles were produced in two different ways by nebulising a water solution of I 2 O 5 and by photochemical reaction of CH 2 I 2 with O 3 . As I 2 O 5 reacts with water producing HIO 3 the first method resulted in the production of HIO 3 aerosol particles at room temperature. To produce I 2 O 5 particles, HIO 3 aerosols were heated in a thermodenuder to temperatures above 200°C. The photochemical reaction of CH 2 I 2 with O 3 resulted in production of I 2 O 4 particles. This was confirmed by EDX spectroscopy that showed that the mass ratio iodine to oxygen was 4.03 which compares well with the expected value of 3.97.
The temperature dependence of the diameter of HIO 3 particles in N 2 as sheath gas shows rapid reduction in size beginning at 210°C, a slight plateau between 240 and 270°C, followed again by swift shrinkage up to 340°C until only a non-volatile residue remains. The volatility behaviour was similar in both filtered air, although in air the volatilization steps occur at lower temperatures, with rapid reduction in size beginning at 190°C, a slight plateau at 205-230°C, and volatilisation complete by 290°C. The volatility of particles generated in the chamber by photolysis of CH 2 I 2 in the presence of O 3 was very similar to that of HIO 3 aerosols when air was used instead of N 2 as the sheath gas.
All of the analysed aerosols showed hygroscopic growth only after they were heated to The Raman spectra indicate that once the particles are exposed to ambient conditions, they tend to absorb more or less water and independently of their original structure tend to be converted with time into HIO 3 . I 2 O 5 particles were able to adsorb water in a much more efficient way than the particles formed upon photo-oxidation of diiodiomethane. The spectra do not allow a determination of their original form, but they give an indication of a different aerosols "predisposition" to absorb water and of the lack of impurities. Raman analysis of particles was performed under ambient condition because formation and collection of the sample was impossible under vacuum conditions, but even under controlled conditions the differences in the stretching modes between HIO 3 , I 2 O 4 and I 2 O 5 are so marginal that a secure identification of the aerosol is not possible with this technique.

Growth model
A model to describe the growth of HIO 3 / I 2 O 5 was created based on a general model for ionic salts described by Wei Li (1992), with a correction in the form of the osmotic coefficient to account for deviation from Raoult's law.
The water activity and osmotic coefficient φ of a solution are defined as Note that since I 2 O 5 reverts to HIO 3 in solution, this expression is relevant for predicting the growth of both I 2 O 5 and HIO 3 particles. When the above information is combined, the resulting model predicts relatively low growth factors, and yields a deliquescence humidity of 85% for arbitrarily large particles. Figure 8 shows a comparison between the theoretical model and the measured growth factors of 90nm HIO 3 particles that were heated to a temperature of 220°C. The deliquescence humidity was observed to lie between 85.5% and 89%, which compares quite well with the predicted value of 85.5% for 90nm particles It must be noted that the experimentally measured growths do not necessarily represent the growth of HIO 3 , since the particles which grow are partly or wholly composed of I 2 O 5 . Thus the measured growths are expected to be up to 5% larger than those predicted by the HIO 3 model, depending on the extent of conversion of HIO 3 to I 2 O 5 in the particle.  Figure 4.
