Severe haze in China has been a global concern in recent years. Most studies about the mechanism of haze formation mare only focused on the heterogeneous reactions of SO2and NO2on mineral aerosols. However, little is known about the role of molecular chlorine (Cl2) in those reactions. Here, we investigated the heterogeneous uptake of Cl2, SO2and NO2on γ-Al2O3particles under different conditions using a quartz-based flow reactor. We found that the existence of γ-Al2O3seed aerosols significantly promotes the formation of secondary chloride, sulfate and nitrate aerosols, and Cl2, NO2and SO2have synergistic effects when they react on γ-Al2O3surface under humid condition. The results also shows that Cl2can promote the formation of secondary sulfate and nitrate aerosols on γ-Al2O3surface. Moreover, Cl2is much easier to react with the surface of γ-Al2O3and form secondary Cl−aerosol when comparing with NO2and SO2, suggesting that Cl2is of great importance in atmospheric chemistry, it has the potential to alter the surface properties (e.g., chemical composition and fraction) of mineral aerosol, enhance the production of secondary inorganic aerosols in the troposphere, and thus cause adverse effects on the climate and human health.
