For the first time, researchers have reported a new family of materials that maintains its conductivity in liquid, liquid ...

The field of ionic liquid microemulsions has evolved significantly, offering a versatile platform for advanced material synthesis, catalysis, and drug delivery. By replacing conventional oil or water ...

Our research program is built on developing experimental approaches to understand the physical, electrochemical and transport properties of ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents, and applying these ...

Using a combination of simulation and experimental techniques, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Material Science and Engineering researchers have been able to identify the electric double layer ...

Perovskite solar cells, which use materials with the same crystal structure as perovskite, are lightweight, flexible, easy to manufacture, and inexpensive. They can be attached to many different ...

A study has made it possible to estimate experimentally the energy required to transfer protons from water to ionic liquids. Researchers have for the first time determined the acidity of ionic liquids ...

IONIC LIQUIDS have been one of the more visible classes of chemicals during the past decade, and for good reason. The more chemists have explored the range of properties possible by mixing and ...

Eden Tanner and her dog, Cocoa, sit for a portrait in the front row of a dimly lit lecture hall with a nearly wall-sized periodic table hanging on the wall behind them. Eden wears a long baby-blue ...
