Ionic liquids (ILs) possess unique properties that make them highly attractive for a range of applications (Box 1). As solvent media for materials synthesis, their high thermal stability and their ...

Materials that conduct ions are useful in devices involving electrochemical reactions, such as fuel cells and batteries. Low ionic conductivity was a problem for these materials until researchers ...

Ten years ago, research on ionic liquids was a relatively unknown backwater of chemistry. Few chemists were familiar with these low-melting-point salts that have negligible vapor pressure, and barely ...

Over the last three years, there has been an increase in the range of ionic liquids (ILs) utilised and significant advances in our understanding of the fundamental aspects of these materials.

WOBURN, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ionic Materials today announced it has secured $65 million in a Series C financing round from a leading group of financial and strategic investors. The strategic ...

Room-temperature ionic liquids have been used in industrial processes for 15 years or more, and their applications continue to expand. For example, they are being studied by industrial scientists as ...
