Now, researchers from Japan have discovered that water vapor isn&#8217;t the only agent that can do this.<\/p>\n<section class=\"article-banner first-banner ads-336x280\">\n         <!-- \/4988204\/Phys_Story_InText_Box --><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p>In a study <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>earing in <i>RSC Advances<\/i>, researchers from the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo, have revealed that organic vapors can trigger the dissolution of molecular salts in a way similar to water vapor.<\/p>\n<p>This finding could have applications for cleaning up indoor pollutants. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are organic chemicals that exist as vapors at room temperature. The highest concentrations of VOCs are found indoors, and some are harmful to human health and the environment. These compounds can be removed by a number of methods, but to date, removal by a phenomenon known as organic deliquescence hasn&#8217;t been investigated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Deliquescence has been used to collect atmospheric water vapor, but to our knowledge, organic vapor-induced deliquescence hasn&#8217;t yet been reported,&#8221; says lead author of the study, Kazuyuki Ishii. &#8220;We investigated this phenomenon using several solid molecular salts that respond to organic vapors by undergoing solid to liquid changes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Deliquescence is the process by which a solid becomes a liquid as a result of absorbing enough moisture from the air to become dissolved in an aqueous solution. This has been reported for a number of chemicals, including calcium chloride (CaCl<sub>2<\/sub>), that spontaneously create aqueous solutions in humid conditions. Simply increasing the environmental humidity can induce deliquescence (observed as the solid to liquid change) for some water-soluble chemicals, without heating or adding liquid. CaCl<sub>2<\/sub>, for example, has been used as a chemical desiccant (i.e., a water-absorbent substance used to induce or maintain dryness).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"mb-4\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\">\n    <meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Dissolving the problem: Organic vapor induces dissolution of molecular salts\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\/?v=LXE3LeAk3N0\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Credit: University of Tokyo\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2022-06-28T13:53:43-04:00\"\/><br \/>\n        <meta itemprop=\"embedUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LXE3LeAk3N0\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/LXE3LeAk3N0\/maxresdefault.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>             <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Soft Crystals English ver\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LXE3LeAk3N0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><figcaption class=\"text-darken text-low-up mt-4\" itemprop=\"caption\">Credit: University of Tokyo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;We used CaCl<sub>2<\/sub> powder in a typical control experiment, in which it clearly changed to an aqueous solution via water vapor-induced deliquescence,&#8221; explains Kyoko Enomoto, senior author. &#8220;The changes we observed in molecular salts in the presence of an organic vapor were similar to the results of that control experiment under equivalent conditions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The researchers observed that the molecular salts changed from solid to liquid when chemicals such as chloroform (CHCl<sub>3<\/sub>) were used as organic solvents.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We found that organic deliquescence isn&#8217;t rare\u2014instead, suitable organic deliquescent responses to VOCs can be designed based on the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> rule &#8216;like dissolves like,'&#8221; explains Ishii.<\/p>\n<p>There is a pressing need to remove VOCs from indoor environments using organic solvents, particularly industrial facilities that use large amounts.
