Synthesis of Poly-p-phenylene Terephthalamide (PPTA) in Ionic Liquids
TL;DR: In this article, a room-temperature IL 3-methyl-1-octylimidazolium chloride ([C8MIM][Cl]) showed the highest promise as, with this medium, the polycondensation reaction proceeds with a mechanism similar to how it occurs in the solvent mixture of NMP with CaCl2.

Continuous Synthesis of Peralkylated Imidazoles and their Transformation into Ionic Liquids with Improved (Electro)Chemical Stabilities
Cedric Maton,Nils De Vos,Bart Roman,Evert Vanecht,Neil R. Brooks,Koen Binnemans,Stijn Schaltin,Jan Fransaer,Christian V. Stevens +8 more
TL;DR: Improved thermal and electrochemical stabilities of these compounds compared with conventional imidazolium ionic liquids is also demonstrated by thermogravimetrical analysis (TGA) and cyclic voltammetry (CV).

Alkali-metal salts of aromatic carboxylic acids: Liquid crystals without flexible chains
Rik Van Deun,Jan Ramaekers,Peter Nockemann,Kristof Van Hecke,Luc Van Meervelt,Koen Binnemans +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the metal ion and of the type of substituents on the transition temperatures of meta-substituted benzoic acids is discussed and the crystal structures of these compounds are determined by X-ray crystallography.

A mechanism for solvent extraction of first row transition metals from chloride media with the ionic liquid tetraoctylammonium oleate
Dries Parmentier,Tom Vander Hoogerstraete,Dipanjan Banerjee,Yash A. Valia,Sybrand J. Metz,Koen Binnemans,Maaike C. Kroon,Maaike C. Kroon +7 more
TL;DR: The experimental data showed that Co(ii) and Ni (ii) were extracted in the pH range from 6 to 8 by the formation of negatively charged metal carboxylate complexes with tetraalkylammonium counter ions, while Zn(ii).
Modeling of Aluminium Deposition from Chloroaluminate Ionic Liquids
TL;DR: In this paper, a finite element model of the electrodeposition of aluminium from chloroaluminate ionic liquids is introduced to give an explanation for the reasonable current densities that can be achieved in chloromethane ionic liquid, despite the fact that the electrochemically active Al2Cl 7 complexes are transformed into inactive AlCl 4 complexes during the extraction of aluminium.
