Water activity and activation diameters from hygroscopicity data - Part I: Theory and application to inorganic salts
A method is described that uses particle hygroscopicity measurements, made with a humidified tandem differential mobility analyzer (HTDMA), to determine solution water activity as a function of composition. The use of derived water activity data in computations determining the ability of aerosols to...
