The development of new electrolyte and electrode designs and compositions has led to
advances in electrochemical energy-storage (EES) devices over the past decade. However …

This Review covers the recent developments (2005–2015) in the design, synthesis,
characterization, and application of thermotropic ionic liquid crystals. It was designed to give …

Abstract 2D materials have demonstrated good chemical, optical, electrical, and magnetic
characteristics, and offer great potential in numerous applications. Corresponding synthesis …

Simple ionic liquids have long been held to be designer solvents, based upon the ability to
independently vary their cations and anions. The formation of mixtures of ionic liquids …

Salts having a low melting point are liquid at room temperature, or even below, and form a
new class of liquids usually called room temperature ionic liquids (RTIL). Information about …

Studying the concentration and temperature dependence of the conductivity of electrolyte
solution is of great significance for the evaluation and improvement of the performance of the …

Nonaqueous ionic liquids have been known for almost one century. In 1914, Paul Walden
described the synthesis and properties of the “first” ionic liquid, ethylammonium nitrate. This …

Ionic liquids are a fascinating class of novel solvents, which are attracting attention as
possible 'green'alternative to volatile molecular organic solvents to be applied in catalytic …

We combine old, unpublished data on ionic liquids containing quaternary ammonium
cations with new data on salts of aromatic cations containing a variety of anions, to …

Room-temperature ionic liquids, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIBF4), 1-
ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide (EMITFSI), 1-butylpyridinium …
