“…After 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, the first air-and water-stable IL, was reported, [4] several ILs have been synthesized because of their many attractive features, such as negligible vapor pressure, noncombustibility, ionic conductivity and wide-ranging electrochemical potential. These characteristics have encouraged researchers to devise various applications, such as environmentally friendly solvents for chemical syntheses, [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] phase separations at lower critical temperatures, [13] new-type actuators, [14][15][16][17][18] non-volatile electrolytes for lithium ion batteries, [19][20][21][22][23][24] fuel cells, [25][26][27] and solar batteries. [28][29][30] It was recently reported that very slow vaporization of some ILs is detected under high vacuum and high temperature conditions.…”
