Short summary
We experimentally investigated vapor wall loss of n-alkanes in a Teflon chamber across a wide temperature range. Increased wall loss was observed at lower temperatures. Further analysis suggests that lower temperatures enhance partitioning of n-alkanes to the surface layer of a Teflon wall but slow their diffusion into the inner layer. The results are important for quantitative analysis of chamber experiments conducted at low temperatures, simulating wintertime or upper-tropospheric conditions.
