Underwater Plasma‐Driven Decomposition of Tetramethylammonium Hydroxide (TMAH) Under Different Applied Field Strengths

Plasma Processes and Polymers, EarlyView.
Underwater plasma efficiently degrades TMAH via in situ generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. An underwater plasma accelerates mass transfer and radical attack on the quaternary ammonium cation. Time‐resolved analyses show decreasing TOC and conversion of organic carbon toward inorganic species, with concomitant formation of NO3–/NH4+ at ...
