Abstract. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) have great impacts on air quality, climate change and human health. The composition and physicochemical properties of SOA differ a lot for they originated under different atmospheric conditions and from various precursors and oxidations. In this work, photooxidation experiments of toluene were performed under four conditions (dry, dry with SO2, wet, and wet with SO2) to investigate the effect of SO2 under different relative humidity on the composition and optical properties of SOA at the wavelength of 375 nm and 532 nm. According to our results, the increase of humidity enhances not only light absorption, but also scattering property of SOA. Highly conjugated oligomers formed through multiphase reaction might be the reasons of this phenomenon. Adding SO2 slightly lower the real part of complex refractive index (n) of SOA: ndry, SO2
