Abstract
Temperature programmed desorption mass spectrometry (TPDMS) has been employed to study the interactions of hydrogen chloride with thin (200−1000 ML) ice films prepared under a variety of conditions. A single desorption state, designated as β-HCl, is observed in experiments with ice films vapor-deposited at substrate temperatures below 153 K and in experiments with ice films prepared by annealing of amorphous ice at 170−180 K. β-HCl evolution occurs at 205 K and is consistent with desorption of HCl hexahydrate, HCl·(H2O)6, incorporated into the ice film bulk. HCl uptake measurements demonstrate that migration of hydrogen chloride into the film bulk is relatively unrestrained even at 100 K. Dramatic differences in HCl TPD spectra and uptake are observed when ice films are vapor-deposited at temperatures above 153 K. A new state, designated as δ-HCl, appears in the TPD spectra at 185 K. HCl uptake with this type of film is limited to approximately 1 ML. δ-HCl is tentatively assigned to desorption of a unique...
