“…Despite its low performance against the liquid electrolyte control, this cell exhibited stability due to its good filling contact between the electrodes. 196 The cross-linked starch nanoparticles prepared with ILs are promising carriers in the drug delivery system due to their relatively small size and narrow size distribution. [13][14][15] Zhou et al 13 tested the drug loading and release properties of starch nanoparticles which were prepared in [Bmim][PF6].…”

“…The most commonly used ILs for the purposes of dissolving [ 42 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 ] and plasticizing [ 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 ] are 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [BMIM]Cl, 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [AMIM]Cl, and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate [EMIM]Ac ( Table 2 ) [ 42 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 ].

“…Effective relaxation of the macrostructure of granular starch and access to its hydroxyl groups confirmed the effectiveness of the IL used. Cationic starch was also obtained by Lobregas et al by grafting another IL—1-glycidyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (GMIC)—onto the polysaccharide chain of potato starch [ 65 ]. It is also possible to obtain anionic maize starch with the use of ILs [ 54 ].…”

The Importance of Ionic Liquids in the Modification of Starch and Processing of Starch-Based Materials

2020

The main applications of ionic liquids in chemistry and material research on one of the most important natural polymers—starch—are presented in this review. A brief characterization of ionic liquids and the advantages and disadvantages of using them in the modification and processing of polysaccharides is presented. The latest reports on the use of various ionic liquids as solvents or co-solvents; as media for synthesizing starch derivatives in oxidation, etherification, esterification, and transesterification, with particular emphasis on biocatalyzed reactions; and as plasticizers or compatibilizers in the processing of starch-based polymers have been investigated. The current trends, possibilities, and limitations of using this type of compound for the production of functional starch-based materials are presented.

“…Thanks to their conductive behavior they have been widely used in electrochemistry, in the preparation of lithium batteries, but also as electrolytes in dye sensitized solar cells. In some of the above-mentioned applications, IL use is advantageous with respect to inorganic electrolytes, as a consequence of their lower corrosivity [63,64].…”

This review deals with the notable results obtained by the synergy between ionic liquids (ILs) and WO3 in the field of pollutant gas sensing and sulfur removal pretreatment of fuels. Starting from the known characteristics of tungsten trioxide as catalytic material, many authors have proposed the use of ionic liquids in order to both direct WO3 production towards controllable nanostructures (nanorods, nanospheres, etc.) and to modify the metal oxide structure (incorporating ILs) in order to increase the gas adsorption ability and, thus, the catalytic efficiency. Moreover, ionic liquids are able to highly disperse WO3 in composites, thus enhancing the contact surface and the catalytic ability of WO3 in both hydrodesulfurization (HDS) and oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of liquid fuels. In particular, the use of ILs in composite synthesis can direct the hydrogenation process (HDS) towards sulfur compounds rather than towards olefins, thus preserving the octane number of the fuel while highly reducing the sulfur content and, thus, the possibility of air pollution with sulfur oxides. A similar performance enhancement was obtained in ODS, where the high dispersion of WO3 (due to the use of ILs during the synthesis) allows for noteworthy results at very low temperatures (50 °C).
