Abstract

Aircraft sampling of atmospheric particulate matter often implies small mass collection for subsequent analysis, especially when free tropospheric samples are considered. We present here results of the use of an X-ray fluorescence instrument, specifically designed for small-mass samples, in the determination of free tropospheric and boundary layer elemental concentrations. Based on 1- to 2-h-long samples, ng m−3 ambient air concentrations of Ti, Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Br, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Mo, Cd and Pb may be determined with uncertainties of 5–15% in polluted and even some rural boundary layer samples. In free tropospheric and remote boundary layer samples, concentrations may be determined for many of these elements but with larger uncertainties.

用x射线荧光法测定飞机样品中小质量颗粒物质的元素浓度
飞机对大气颗粒物的采样通常意味着为后续分析收集少量样本,特别是在考虑到自由对流层样本时。我们在这里介绍了使用x射线荧光仪器的结果,该仪器是专门为小质量样品设计的,用于测定对流层和边界层的自由元素浓度。基于1 ~ 2 h长的样品,在污染的甚至一些农村边界层样品中,可以测定ng m−3环境空气中Ti、Cr、Mn、Ni、Cu、Zn、As、Se、Br、Rb、Sr、Y、Zr、Mo、Cd和Pb的浓度,不确定度为5-15%。在自由对流层和远边界层样品中,可以确定许多这些元素的浓度,但不确定性较大。
