Table 3. Parameters used in the K2-SURF model.
Parameter | Parameter description | Parameter value |
α s,0,lim | Surface accommodation coefficient on an adsorbate-free surface | 1 |
τ d,lim | Desorption lifetime of limonene on the surface | 2.3 × 104 ns (Fig. 5), 2.6 × 104 ns (Fig. S2) a |
k 1 | First-order rate coefficient for the conversion of the C* down limonene configuration to the C* up limonene configuration | 4.6 × 109 s–1 b |
k 2 | First-order rate coefficient for the conversion of the C* up limonene configuration to the C* down limonene configuration | 6.8 × 108 s–1 c |
σ lim | Effective adsorption cross-section of a limonene molecule | 0.55 nm2 (Fig. 5), 0.79 nm2 (Fig. S2 and 6) |
c 1 | Fraction of limonene adsorbed as C* down, (1 – c1) is the fraction adsorbed as C* up | 0.5 |
aFor simplicity, the same value is assumed for the C* down and C* up configurations. Also note that these values are for room temperature (∼296 K). At other temperatures the following equation is used: (1/τd,lim) = exp(–6423 × (1/T) + 32.24).
bThe activation energy associated with this rate coefficient is 24.6 kJ mol–1 assuming a pre-exponential factor of 1 × 1014 s–1.
cThe activation energy associated with this rate coefficient is 29.3 kJ mol–1 assuming a pre-exponential factor of 1 × 1014 s–1.
