“…1 Due to their intriguing properties, such as high thermal stability, high thermal conductivity, high polarity, high ame resistance, low interface energy, low melting points, almost zero vapor pressure and volatility related to their effective ion-ion interaction, low pollution, ease of recycling, etc. [2][3][4] ILs are promising materials in many applications, such as synthesis, 5 catalysis, 6 electrochemistry, 7 energy, 8 and separation. 9 Recently ILs have been especially employed in the colloid and interface sciences because their hydrophilic and hydrophobic structure can be controlled by changing the cations or anions.…”
