Whether an ionic liquid (IL) is water-miscible or immiscible depends on the particular ions
that constitute it. We propose an explanation, based on molecular simulations, how ions …

Although the “like-dissolves-like” rule is often invoked to explain why sodium chloride
dissolves in water, hidden behind this explanation is the delicate balance between the very …

We study the properties of residual water molecules at different mole fractions in
dialkylimidazolium based ionic liquids (ILs), namely 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium …

How do residual water molecules in ionic liquids (ILs) interact with themselves, as well as
with the ions? This question is crucial in understanding why the physical properties of ILs …

The understanding of the specific interactions between salt ions and ionic liquids (ILs) in
aqueous solutions is relevant in multiple applications. The influence of a series of anions on …

The sensitivity of ionic liquids (ILs) to water affects their physical and chemical properties,
even at relatively low concentrations, yet the structural thermodynamics of protic IL–(PIL−) …

Water was originally inimical to ionic liquids (ILs) especially in the analysis of their detailed
properties. Various data on the properties of ILs indicate that there are two ways to design …

We report a molecular dynamics study of the interface between water and (macroscopically)
water-immiscible room-temperature ionic liquids “ILs”, composed of PF6-anions and butyl …

A systematic study of the interactions between water and alkyl methyl imidazolium chloride
ionic liquids at 298.2 K, based on activity coefficients estimated from water activity …

Iodide-based ionic liquids have been widely employed as iodide sources in electrolytes for
applications utilizing the triiodide/iodide redox couple. While adding a low-viscosity solvent …
