Role of methyl group number on SOA formation from monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons photooxidation under low-NO<sub><i>x</i></sub> conditions

Substitution of methyl groups onto the aromatic ring determines the secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation from the monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon precursor (SOA yield and chemical composition). This study links the number of methyl groups on the aromatic ring to SOA formation from monocycli...
