✦ Synopsis


X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) has been used to determine the species present in urban particulate matter collected in the city of Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy) and in an industrial area near to Cagliari. Samples were collected on both cellulose and glass fiber filters. Elemental identification, chemical state and quantitative analyses of the examined samples indicated the presence of Na 3 AlF 6 , SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 in the ratio 2:2:5, carbon and oxygen being the major components. The results obtained on NIST SRM 1648 urban particulate matter, before and after grinding, are also presented.
