Aggregates in mixtures of ionic liquids

Zusammenfassung

Surfactant-like ionic liquids (C16MIMCl, C16MIMBF4) aggregate in mixtures with another ionic liquid (EAN). Critical aggregate concentrations and estimations of object sizes are given and compared to aqueous systems and other relevant literature data. The investigated mixtures are stable up to more than 200 degrees C and can probably be used to extend the limited temperature range of water-based colloids. (C) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
