| Abstract: | Activated charcoal, commonly used for
purification of ionic liquids is found, for the first time, to severely
contaminate
1-butyl 3-methyl imidazolium iodide with iodine species during the conventional
purification process. Surprisingly, the contaminants which includes I, reduces the viscosity of the ionic liquid considerably as
compared to externally added molecular iodine, making it extremely promising
for electrochemical applications. |
