Internal combustion engines are among the main sources of soot particles, especially when
non-homogeneous and high fuel-air ratio conditions are achieved in the combustion …

Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are attractive for a wide variety of structural and functional
applications owing to excellent specific strength, toughness and stiffness, and corrosion …

Concerns regarding noxious emissions from internal combustion engines have increased
over the years. There is a strong need to understand the nature of sub-23 nm particles and …

The role of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the formation of nascent soot
particles in flames is well established and yet the detailed mechanisms are still not fully …

Combustion-generated particles are typically non-spherical (soot aggregates) and
sometimes mixed with organic compounds (eg in vehicle emissions). The effective density …

This paper investigates the impact of cyclic fuels on the nanostructure, nucleation and
overall production of soot in an n-heptane (C 7 H 16) laminar coflow diffusion flame. The …

Secondary organic aerosols (SOA) are one of the main sources of uncertainty in the current
understanding of the Earth's climate. Agriculture contributes to primary aerosol emissions …

The organic inventories of carbonaceous chondrites (CCs) provide insights into the
physicochemical environments involved in the Solar System's formation and the …

The transformation of molecular precursors in the gas phase into nanoparticles in the
condensed phase (soot inception) during combustion has not yet been fully understood …

This work combines laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (L2MS) and advanced
statistical techniques to reveal the impact of a catalytic stripper (CS) on the chemical …
