Ionic Liquids – New Prospects for More Sustainable Energy Technologies
Electrochemical applications
A relatively low-viscosity, non-flammable liquid showing electric conductivity and wide electrochemical windows: this is a combination of properties not achievable with any other material than ionic liquids. Some examples where ionic liquids offer new opportunities:
higher efficiency and safety in lithium ion batteries
higher capacities and safety in supercapacitors
electrolytes in dye-sensitized solar cells
"Low viscous, non volatile liquids showing electric conductivity - this is not achievable with any other material than Ionic Liquids, qualifying them as new materials for electrolytes."
