摘要
Thin film methods and X ray energy dispersive technique were applied to analyze sulfate-containing particles inBeijing in order to examine their features and sources. Atmospheric aerosol particles were collected on electron microscope meshes according to two size ranges: coarse particles (r>0.5μm) and fine particles (0.5μm>r>0. 1μm) by using a two-stage impactor. It was found that more than seventy percent of the fine particles and about twenty percentof the coarse particles were sulfate-containing particles. These particles were formed mainly through heterogeneousnucleation. The element composition analyses revealed that the atmospheric aerosol particles in Beijing were domi-nated by crustal particles and construction dust.
