摘要
We report on the structure of a set of diesel exhaust samples that were obtained from reference diesel fuel and diesel fuel mixed with ferrocene. Characterization was carried out with X-ray absorption spectroscopy (C(1s) NEXAFS) and wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS). The reference diesel soot shows a pronounced graphite-like microstructure and molecular structure, with a strong (002) graphite Bragg reflex and a strong aromatic C=C resonance at 285 eV. The mineral matter in the reference soot could be identified as Fe2O3 hematite. The soot specimen from the diesel mixed with ferrocene has an entirely different structure and lacks significantly in graphite-like characteristics. NEXAFS spectra of such soot barely show aromatics but pronounced contributions from aliphatic structures. WAXS patterns show almost no intensity at the Bragg (002) reflection of graphite, but a strong aliphatic gamma-side band. The iron from the ferrocene transforms to Fe2O3 maghemite.
