“…By chemical modification of the polar or apolar components or charge of the ions, numerous ILs with a range of physicochemical properties such as viscosity, catalytic activity, or solvation can be generated. We now have task specific ionic liquids that can be applied for a range of designated applications [4,5]: ionic liquids as drugs [6,7], as batteries and super-capacitors for solving energy demands of the environment [8][9][10][11], to capture greenhouse gases, to dissolve proteins [12,13] and cellulose [14,15].…”
