Adhesives have a long and illustrious history throughout human history. The development of
synthetic polymers has highly improved adhesions in terms of their strength and …

Low melting point salts which are often classified as ionic liquids have received significant
attention from research groups and industry for a range of novel applications. Many of these …

Choline-chloride based deep eutectic solvents (DES) have been used for several different
applications (eg, solubility, electrochemistry, and purifications) due to their relative …

We have developed a simple and quantitative explanation for the relatively low melting
temperatures of ionic liquids (ILs). The basic concept was to assess the Gibbs free energy of …

In this paper we analyse the electronic properties of gas‐phase 1‐butyl‐3‐
methylimidazolium Cl ion pairs,[C4C1im] Cl, in order to deepen our understanding of ionic …

Refined parameters of an atomistic interaction potential model for the room temperature
ionic liquid 1-n-butyl, 3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate are presented. Classical …

Ionic liquids (ILs) have captured the imagination of a large and steadily growing community
of scientists due to their applications as reaction media,[1, 2] in batteries and …

Accurate and efficient prediction of melting points for complex molecules is still a
challenging task for molecular simulation, although many methods have been developed …

Single crystals of five very low-melting ionic liquids,[emim] BF4 (mp− 1.3° C),[bmim] PF6 (+
1.9° C),[bmim] OTf (+ 6.7° C),[hexpy] NTf2 (− 3.6° C), and [bmpyr] NTf2 (− 10.8° C), have …

Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the dynamics and transport properties of
12 room-temperature ionic liquids of the 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium [amim]+(⁠ alkyl …
