aerosoler

Aerosoler is the Turkish plural form for aerosol and is also used to refer to aerosol systems or products in general. An aerosol is a system in which solid or liquid particles are dispersed as a suspension within a gas, typically air. The dispersed phase can consist of solid particles, liquid droplets, or gas-phase microdroplets, and the carrier gas is usually air.

Particle sizes in aerosols range from a few nanometers to several micrometers. The composition of aerosols varies widely and can include dust, soot, sea salt, pollen, spray droplets from consumer products, flame- or combustion byproducts, and propellants used in spray devices. Aerosols can form through natural processes such as volcanic eruptions, wildfires, and sea spray, or through human activities such as manufacturing, spraying, and agriculture.

In the atmosphere, aerosols are affected by physical processes including coagulation, condensation and evaporation, sedimentation, diffusion, and transport by wind. They influence atmospheric optics and climate by scattering and absorbing sunlight and by acting as cloud condensation nuclei, which can modify cloud properties and precipitation patterns.

Applications of aerosols span everyday products and industrial uses. They are found in cosmetics, deodorants, paints, cleaners, and pharmaceutical inhalers, as well as in agricultural sprays and industrial coatings. Health and environmental considerations depend on particle size, concentration, and chemical composition; smaller, respirable particles pose greater inhalation risks and can have broader health and ecological impacts.

Regulation and safety measures address exposure limits, labeling, and propellant use in consumer aerosols. Standards may vary by country and product type, reflecting concerns about inhalation exposure and environmental effects.
