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.
