“…88,91 Due to their tuneability and excellent physicochemical properties, ILs have found several applications in the eld of biomass processing, carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide capturing, electrical energy storage, organic and inorganic synthesis, extraction of compounds from water, polymerization, drug delivery, extraction of collagen, bone ller, and lubricants, to name a few. [95][96][97][98] In general, ILs are designed by combining bulky organic cations such as imidazolium, pyridinium, piperidinium, pyrazolium, phosphonium, and ammonium with various organic or inorganic anions. The selection of ion pairs plays a major role in the thermo-physical properties as well as the solubility and miscibility of ILs in various organic and inorganic solvents.…”
