Coexistence of Liquid and Solid Phases of Bmim-PF6 Ionic Liquid on Mica Surfaces at Room Temperature

Abstract: In this communication, we report the coexistence of liquid and solid phases of room temperature ionic liquid (IL) [Bmim][PF6] on mica surfaces, observed by tapping mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) in air. Multilayers as well as drop-on-the-layer structures of the ionic liquid are revealed. The solid layers were very stable, and their orientations were affected by the mica lattice, indicating that the ionic liquid undergoes a template-induced ordering process. These results are helpful for advancing the under… Show more

“…Repulsive force derived from steric hindrance or solvation force makes silica nanoparticles disperse in [C 4 mim][BF 4 ], which has proposed by Ueno et al (2009). The repulsive solvation force for ILs-silica system has been detected by surface force measurement and directly confirmed by atomic force microscopy (Liu et al 2006;Atkin and Warr 2007). The shear thickening behavior is similar with hydrophilic silica dispersed in PEG (Mw = 400) as reported by Raghavan and Khan 1997.…”

“…Charge/voltage driven structural transitions in the electrical double layer (EDL) in ionic liquids (ILs) have recently attracted large interest in experimental [1,2,3,4,5,6], theoretical [7] and computational [8,9,10,11,12,13,14] communities due to the importance of this subject for a variety of IL applications [15,16].…”

“…Recently, various spectroscopic measures (NMR, IR, Raman, etc.) were utilized to characterize the properties of RTILs [7][8][9]. Pulse radiolysis and time-resolved fluorescence [10][11][12][13][14][15][16] have also been applied to study the reaction processes occurring in RTILs.…”
