Useful websites on ionic liquids

http://98.131.55.98/index.asp

This is the official website of All Around Ionic Liquids (AAILs), the first and only dedicated IL website.

http://ilthermo.boulder.nist.gov/ILThermo/mainmenu.uix

This website has the ionic liquids database and provides very useful information.

http://www.esi-topics.com/ionic-liquids/
This website is useful if you are interested in the best ionic liquid articles, researchers, their work, etc. Ranking are also there for articles but only between 1994 -2004.

http://quill.qub.ac.uk/

This is the website of the world's most advanced and largest ionic liquid community. Part of Queen's University, Belfast, QUILL has grown over the last decade from a bubble-dream into a real brigde between industry and academia. A dream land.


http://www.kuleuven.be/ionic-liquids/worldwide.php

This is the webpage of Ionic Liquid Group at Catholic University of Leuven, Belguim. The group is a pioneer is task-specific ionic liquids. Their webpage also provides links to other research groups. VERY GOOD ATTEMPT.

http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/hunt/research_il_defn.html

The Hunt Research Group is a theoretical and computational chemistry group which carries out theoretical development and computational modeling. This includes solvation, catalytic process, etc.

http://ras.material.tohoku.ac.jp/~molten/
This is a database of bibliographical (approx. 33500 papers) and physical property (approx. 14300 data) resources of molten salts.

http://www.dfg-spp1191.de/front/

This is a priority programme of German Research Foundation and is dedicated to improving understanding of the special nature of ionic liquids through fundamental research. The main goal of the programme is the detailed investigation of the interactions between the components of an ionic liquid (ions and ion clusters),

This the official webpage of Dr. Barbara Kirchner. Their research areas deal with traditional theoretical chemistry methods ranging from molecular dynamics MD simulations based on empirical pair potentials to first-principles quantum chemical QC methods.

What are ionic liquids ?

Ionic liquids are either inorganic or organic salts that are melt and consist of only ionic species. They broadly classified as high-temperature molten salts and room temperature ionic liquids.

High temperature molten salts are mostly, either alkali or alkaline earth halides, which are melt more than 500 C (800 K). They are either single salt or eutectic mixtures.

Room temperature ionic liquids can be defined as organic salts which are melt at ambient conditions (100 C or 373 K). They normally consist of a large and asymmetric organic cation and an anion.

This website is basically focussed on the later part which are considered as green solvents and whose research is pursued vigourously all around the world.

About me

Hi all,

I am a PhD student about to wind up my experiment to write down my thesis. Hope is works by next summer and I turn from Mr. to Dr. by early 2011.

My research project is basically on applications of ionic liquids for the recovery of valuable materials from nuclear fuel. We have attempted several routes for the recovery of Ru, Rh, Pd from spent nuclear fuel. A brief intro can be found of my work at

Welcome

Hi all,
This is a blog on ionic liquids. No non-sense webpage that is dedicated to ionic liquids research.
Thanks,
