“…However, this behavior has been reported previously for [TFSI] − based ILs in binary mixtures with solvents possessing both high and low dielectric constants. 46,[48][49][50] The results suggest the presence of the solvent promotes ionic aggregation or the formation of ion pairs within the liquid. Such observations have permitted the speculation of non-homogeneity within the mixture by the formation of microphases wherein the ionic liquid structure is retained upon dilution.…”

In this paper, we report on thermophysical and electrochemical investigations of a series of molecular solvent/ionic liquid (IL) binary mixture electrolytes. Tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TEGDME) is utilized as the molecular solvent component in separate mixtures with two bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}imide anion based ILs paired with similarly sized cyclic and acyclic alkylammonium cations; 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}imide, [Pyrr 14 ] [TFSI], or N-butyl-N,N-dimethyl-N-ethylammonium bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}imide, [N 1124 ] [TFSI]. The blending of ILs with select molecular solvents is an important strategy for the improvement of the typically sluggish transport capabilities of these interesting electrolytic solvents. Bulk volumetric and transport properties are reported as a function of temperature and binary mixture formulation; demonstrating the capacity for enhancing desired properties of the IL. Micro-disk electrode voltammetry and chronoamperometry in O 2 -saturated binary mixture electrolytes was used to assess the effect of formulation on the solubility and diffusivity of the dissolved gas. In addition, further investigations of the behavior of the O 2 redox couple at a GC macro-disk electrode are discussed. The exploration of ionic liquids (ILs) as alternatives to conventional molecular solvents in electrolyte formulations is continually growing for a variety of electrochemical applications. These low melting organic salts can be tailored to exhibit a variety of properties, including hydrophobicity and thermal, chemical, and electrochemical stability, which make them attractive candidate electrolyte solvents. Composed solely of ionic components, ILs consequently possess intrinsic electrolytic conductivity and are additionally non-volatile. These properties have encouraged the use of ILs as (complete or partial) substitutions of the volatile components of commercial Li-ion batteries, electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs), and other prospective battery technologies (e.g. Na-ion, Mg-ion and metal-air batteries) for the development of potentially safer devices.1-15 Furthermore, the high (electro)chemical stabilities and non-volatilities exhibited by many IL structures provides interesting electrolyte media for electrochemical gas sensors (e.g. for O 2 , 16-19 CO 2 , 20,21 NO 2 22 ) where traditional solvents are prone to evaporation leading to device failure, and also for electromechanical actuator, 23-25 and electrodeposition applications. [26][27][28] Nevertheless, while the properties of ILs are dependent on the virtually unlimited combinations of different cation and anion structures, the attractive features are generally coupled with sluggish transport properties relative to conventional electrolytes based on either aqueous or organic solvents. In turn, electrochemical devices constructed with neat IL electrolytes are likely to suffer transport limitations on useable current rates for the given application, for example restricting power capabiliti...

“…Li et al evidenced the feasibility of sulfites and SL blend as electrolyte solvents with conducting salt of lithium bis(oxalato) borate (LiBOB), which results in the reduction of the flashpoints significantly for practical application of LIBs [78]. To overcome the aforesaid issues, most research has focused on identifying new ILs with negligible vapor pressures and high flash points for LIBs [54,[79][80][81][82].…”

“…A new class of IL, PYR 14 TFSI in a PEO matrix, subsequently enhances the chemical and electrochemical properties of SPEs [55], which are capable of providing the theoretical capacity (170 mA h g −1 ) at 30 • C through excellent cyclability. In a similar fashion, ILs, like PYR 14 TFSI, Im 13 TFSI, DEME-TFSI and PP 13 -TFSI, Im 13 TFSI, Im 23 PF 6 , etc., have been extensively studied and characterized for SPEs in LIB applications using PEO as the host polymer matrix [20,30,79,116,120,[149][150][151][152].

Since the ability of ionic liquid (IL) was demonstrated to act as a solvent or an electrolyte, IL-based electrolytes have been widely used as a potential candidate for renewable energy storage devices, like lithium ion batteries (LIBs) and supercapacitors (SCs). In this review, we aimed to present the state-of-the-art of IL-based electrolytes electrochemical, cycling, and physicochemical properties, which are crucial for LIBs and SCs. ILs can also be regarded as designer solvents to replace the more flammable organic carbonates and improve the green credentials and performance of energy storage devices, especially LIBs and SCs. This review affords an outline of the progress of ILs in energy-related applications and provides essential ideas on the emerging challenges and openings that may motivate the scientific communities to move towards IL-based energy devices. Finally, the challenges in design of the new type of ILs structures for energy and environmental applications are also highlighted.Polymers 2020, 12, 918 2 of 37 and structural stability of the ionic species are extremely crucial and responsible for the efficient outputs in energy storage devices. In the light of this fact, high current (i.e., automotive applications) operating devices are required to have storage devices that have higher power density and faster ion transport properties. Previous studies have suggested that one of the most favorable approaches to simultaneously progress the safety, along with energy and power densities, is the incorporation of ILs into the electrolyte system [11].In past decades, room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) have been acknowledged with noteworthy attention due to their excellent miscellaneous properties, such as thermal and chemical stability, tunable structure over the wide range of operating temperature, a broad electrochemical stability window, high ionic conductivity in the range of 10 −3 -10 −2 S cm −1 at room temperature, and non-flammability as a potential candidate for EES devices, such as LIBs [12], electric double-layer SCs [13][14][15], proton exchange membrane fuel cells, and solar cells [16][17][18][19]. Using ILs as an alternative to organic electrolytes has the advantage of improving the ions' mobility, as well as eliminating the hazards associated within the organic electrolytes. Additionally, ILs often have comparable zero or negligible vapor pressure at normal temperatures due to their high thermal stability. Because of the above statements, ILs are widely used as solvents or electrolytes for energy storage applications in recent times [7,18,[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27].Typically, ILs are organic salts, also defined as molten salts, which have a lower melting point (<100 • C) with a wide degree of variation. Moreover, they are comprised of organic cations, such as an pyridinium (PY) [28], imidazolium (Im) [29][30][31][32], pyrrolidinium (PYR) [33][34][35][36], ammonium [37], and sulfonium [38], derivatives joined inorganic or organic anions, such as BF 4 − [39,40], PF 6 − [30], triflate (...

“…Imidazolium, pyrrolidinium and tetraalkylammonium-based ILs, for example, are currently widely studied for their suitability in Li-ion cells, especially in the case of metal anodes, and are typically used with [TFSI] − or [FSI] − as counter-ions [ 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 ]. Although imidazolium-based ILs show excellent results in terms of high conductivity (range of 1–10 mS∙cm −1 at 25 °C in Li-ion-based conducting salt mixtures) and low viscosity (range of 50–500 mPa∙s at 25 °C in Li-ion based conducting salt mixtures), their voltage stability is limited to the range < 4 V vs. Li/Li + [ 34 , 35 , 36 ]. Pyrrolidinium- and tetraalkylammonium-based ILs exhibit improved voltage stability but are somewhat weaker in terms of ionic conductivity and Li mobility.…”

In this study, we address the fundamental question of the physicochemical and electrochemical properties of phosphonium-based ionic liquids containing the counter-ions bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([TFSI]−) and bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide ([FSI]−). To clarify these structure–property as well as structure–activity relationships, trimethyl-based alkyl- and ether-containing phosphonium ILs were systematically synthesized, and their properties, namely density, flow characteristics, alkali metal compatibility, oxidative stability, aluminum corrosivity as well as their use in Li-ion cells were examined comprehensively. The variable moiety on the phosphonium cation exhibited a chain length of four and five, respectively. The properties were discussed as a function of the side chain, counter-ion and salt addition ([Li][TFSI] or [Li][FSI]). High stability coupled with good flow characteristics were found for the phosphonium IL [P1114][TFSI] and the mixture [P1114][TFSI] + [Li][TFSI], respectively.
