The research covers the synthesis of ionic liquids containing anions fluoroboric acid and quaternary ammonium cations with one ether group. The ionic conductivities of 1M solutions of the synthesized ionic liquids in acetonitrile were measured. They range from 27 to 36 mS/cm, which allows to use solutions as working electrolytes in electrochemical capacitors. It was found that the window of electrochemical stability of the investigated ionic liquids constitutes 3.6-6.1 V and depends on cation structure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
