Summary: This study focuses on the investigation of a series of protic ionic liquids (PILs) with imidazolium and alkylimidazolium cations and analyzes the effects of anion nature and alkyl radical length in the cation structure on thermal and transport properties. The results show that the higher thermodynamic stability of an ion pair increases the PIL decomposition temperature. The melting points of salts decrease as the alkyl radical length in the cation becomes longer, indicating weaker ion-ion interaction in the ion pairs. A comparative analysis between protic ILs and corresponding ILs with the same radical in the cation structure and the same anion has been performed, suggesting that lower melting points of ILs with 1R3MeIm cations result from the weakening of both the ion-ion interaction and the hydrogen bond.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of C2 methylation on the cohesive interaction of trifluoromethanesulfonate ionic liquids (ILs). The nature of the anion strongly influences the impact of C2 methylation. Strong-coordinating and smaller anions promote hydrogen bonding with the acidic hydrogen at the C2 position, while weak-coordinating and larger anions result in a dominant decrease in liquid entropy due to C2 methylation.

Summary: The study evaluated the effects of three alkylimidazolium ionic liquids on natural and multispecies biofilms, finding that [C16MIM][Cl] with a hexadecyl group exhibited superior antibiofilm activity and complete inhibition in biofilm formation. The potent antimicrobial ionic liquid [C16MIM][Cl] may have potential application for preventing multispecies biofilms in cooling water systems.

Summary: The authors investigate the influence of the hydrocarbon radical length in the RIm cation and the nature of the anion on the structural and physicochemical characteristics of imidazolium and alkylimidazolium protic ionic liquids, paying special attention to ion-ion interactions and hydrogen bonding in the ion pairs. The structure-properties relationship of the studied compounds is analyzed using computational and experimental data.

Summary: This study synthesized various alkylimidazolium tetrafuluoroborate salts and evaluated their capabilities as draw solutions for the FO desalination process. The carbon number of the cation was found to tune the phase transition temperature of the ionic liquids, and those with an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in the range of 25℃ to 50℃ were considered suitable draw solutions. Furthermore, the study found that the diluted phases of the ionic liquids had low osmotic pressures, indicating minimal osmotic resistance in the post-treatment membrane process.

Summary: We report the discovery of inorganic toroidal and capsule titanium oxysulfate clusters through ionothermal synthesis. The ratio between geometrically different anions (tetrahedral SO(4)(2-) vs. pseudo-tetrahedral PO(3)(3-)) shows an interesting influence on the formation of cluster structure.

Summary: In this study, the formation kinetics of graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) were investigated, and it was found that the activation energy of interfacial anion transfer resistance is correlated with the viscosity of the ionic liquid electrolytes. This relationship provides important insights for the construction of dual-ion batteries with high capacity and high rate capability.

Summary: This study describes the synthesis, polymerization, and ion exchange of 1-butyl-2,3-dimethyl-4-vinylimidazolium triflate to produce a series of 1-butyl-2,3-dimethyl-4-vinylimidazolium polymers. Regardless of the anion's nature, substitution at the 2-position of the imidazolium moiety significantly increases the distance between the anion and cation.
