Summary: This study introduces an SVR machine learning framework for predicting properties of imidazolium ionic liquids by extracting universal features from COSMO-RS sigma profiles. After training and testing the model, it shows the ability to predict viscosity, conductivity, and density of unobserved ILs using the selected features. The performance of the model is compared with different kernels through cross-validation to ensure unbiased results.

Summary: The thermodynamic properties of ionic liquid choline lactate ([Ch][Lac]) as a potential entrainer in azeotropic mixture separation were studied. It was found that the interactions between ethanol/1-propanol/2-propanol and [Ch][Lac] were stronger, making [Ch][Lac] an efficient entrainer for separating 2-propanol.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to investigate the changes in the solution structure and interaction of the propylammonium nitrate (PAN)/water system in response to temperature and water concentration. The results show that PAN forms a more ordered structure when mixed with water, despite the decrease in intermolecular interaction. The increase in temperature leads to an increase in attractive intermolecular interaction and a transition from an ordered to a disordered structure.

Summary: Amino acid-based ionic liquids exhibit specific properties in thermal stability, heat capacity, antimicrobial activity, and cytotoxicity. It was found in the study that amino acid-based anions can reduce the thermal stability of mono and dicationic AAILs, and AAILs with more carbon chains have lower glass transition temperature.

Summary: Novel activated carbon-based composite adsorbents were studied for thermophysical properties and adsorption characterization with difluoromethane refrigerant, demonstrating significantly higher thermal diffusivities and thermal conductivity in the perpendicular plane of the composites. The adsorption uptake characteristics were gravimetrically studied in the temperature range of 30-70 degrees C, leading to significant enhancements in volumetric cooling energy up to 78% over that of powdered activated carbon. Successful fitting of Dubinin-Astakhov and Toth models for the adsorption isotherms was observed, with the D-A model offering better fits.

Summary: Phase transition temperatures of three ionic liquids (ILs) with different alkyl chain length and common nitrate anion were determined in this study. The thermal stability in air and nitrogen atmosphere and the maximum operation temperatures were also investigated. Thermophysical properties such as density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, and heat capacity were determined and compared with water saturated samples. The results showed different tendencies depending on the measured properties.

Summary: The NRTL model was coupled with the Eyring's absolute rate theory to study thermodynamic properties and viscosities of non-aqueous mixtures containing ILs/DESs. Three parameterizing strategies were investigated, showing the possibility of representing thermodynamic and kinetic properties simultaneously. The study illustrated the reliability and potential of the coupled model in representing complex systems.
