Ionic liquid-nanoparticle based hybrid systems for energy conversion and energy storage applications

Challenges and strategies for imidazolium ionic liquids as novel phase change materials for low and medium temperature thermal energy storage: A critical review

“…Although dramatically, the contradictory findings are also frequently reported [70,185] . The main difference [177] as depicted in Fig.…”

“…Adding nanoparticle addictive to host have been proven to be the simplest yet most effective way to promote heterogenous nucleation, because crystallization can be notably modified when moderate interactions presents [69] . Although adding nanoparticles to ILs [57,70] to elevate thermal conductivity has been widely studied, their effects on ILs nucleation were scarcely investigated.…”

Energy Applications of Ionic Liquids: Recent Developments and Future Prospects

“…67 Moreover, these properties can be further enhanced by using IL composites suspended with nanomaterials, generating the so-called nanofluid. 68,69 Unlike the heat transfer fluids that store heat in the form of sensible heat, phase change materials (PCMs) store thermal energy in the form of latent heat, with the solid−liquid phase transition more favored due to their negligible volume changes. 70,71 For PCMs, the heat conductivity determines the thermal charging time, the heat of fusion decides the heat storage capacity, and the melting point determines the operating condition.…”

“…Many studies have demonstrated the suitability of ILs as heat transfer fluids due to their high thermal stability and wide liquid ranges. , ILs have been found to possess volumetric heat capacities greater than the commercial organic heat transfer fluids. , The thermal conductivities of ILs are generally less than that of water but comparable or larger than organic fluids . Moreover, these properties can be further enhanced by using IL composites suspended with nanomaterials, generating the so-called nanofluid. , …”

Effect of new methionine-based ionic liquid on the CDR1 and CDR2 gene expression on sensitive and resistant strains of Candida albicans

“…ILs have many interesting properties, including powerful conductivity of cations or anions ( 2 ), low flammability ( 3 ), adequate thermal stability ( 4 ), adjustable polarity, being solvent in various biochemical substances ( 5 ), little moisture pressure, and low melting point ( 6 ). Due to their favorite effects, ILs were operated in biochemical processes, organic molecular synthesis ( 7 ), absorption of CO 2 , SO 2 ( 8 ), and extraction from nanoparticles ( 9 ). Two common ionic liquids, ammonium or phosphonium-based, could produce proper bioactive anticancer, antimicrobial, and antiparasitic drugs ( 10 , 11 ).…”
