On mineral dust aerosol hygroscopicity

open access: yes, 2020
Despite its importance, hygroscopicity of mineral dust aerosol remains highly uncertain. In this work, we investigated water adsorption and hygroscopicity of different mineral dust samples at 25 degrees C, via measurement of sample mass at different ...

Assessment Effects of Humidification of Guitars by Complexity Measures of the Sound Level During Sustain

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics
Air humidity significantly affects the sound of wooden instruments. The sound quality decreases when the instrument is exposed to low humidity for an extended period. Therefore, the instrument is treated with a humidifier to improve sound quality.

Production and characterization of H3BO3–Li2CO3-K2CO3-MgO for dosimetry

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2015
This work examines a borate glass produced with oxides of potassium and lithium, known as LKB. The suitability of borate glasses for thermoluminescent (TL) dosimetry has been reported in previous studies.

Aerosol hygroscopicity at high (99 to 100%) relative humidities [PDF]

open access: yes
The hygroscopicity of an aerosol strongly influences its effects on climate and, for smaller particles, atmospheric lifetime. While many aerosol hygroscopicity measurements have been made at lower relative humidities (RH) and under cloud formation ...

Spray-drying of passion fruit juice using lactose-maltodextrin blends as the support material

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2009
The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the blends with different levels of lactose-maltodextrin (8:5, 10:5, and 12:5 % w/v) during the spray-drying of the passion fruit juice. The drying was carried out in a laboratory spray dryer

Particleboard Hygroscopicity: Its Prediction and the Influence of Hot-pressing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
As part of a systematic study for an understanding of the hygroscopicity of wood-based panel products, the effect of hot-pressing on wood-particle hygroscopicity was investigated. The equilibrium moisture content(EMC) of hot-pressed particles ranged from

Hygroscopicity and optical properties of alkylaminium sulfates

open access: yes, 2014
International audienceThe hygroscopicity and optical properties of alkylaminium sulfates (AASs) were investigated using a hygroscopicity tandem differential mobility analyzer coupled to a cavity ring-down spectrometer and a nephelometer. AAS particles do

Sources and composition of sub-200 nm sea spray aerosol inferred from volatility and hygroscopicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Enrichment of marine organics in remote marine aerosols can influence their ability to act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), which are sites for water vapour to condense into cloud droplets. This project identified the composition and hygroscopicity of

Uncertainty in aerosol hygroscopicity resulting from semi-volatile organic compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present a novel method of exploring the effect of uncertainties in aerosol properties on cloud droplet number using existing cloud droplet activation parameterisations.
