Ionic liquids are promising candidates for electrolytes in energy-storage systems. We demonstrate that mixing two ionic liquids allows to precisely tune their physical properties, like the dc conductivity. Moreover, these mixtures enable the gradual modification of the fragility parameter, which is believed to be a measure of the complexity of the energy landscape in supercooled liquids. The physical origin of this index is still under debate; therefore, mixing ionic liquids can provide further insights. From the chemical point of view, tuning ionic liquids via mixing is an easy and thus an economic way. For this study, we performed detailed investigations by broadband dielectric spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry on two mixing series of ionic liquids. One series combines an imidazole based with a pyridine based ionic liquid and the other two different anions in an imidazole based ionic liquid. The analysis of the glass-transition temperatures and the thorough evaluations of the measured dielectric permittivity and conductivity spectra reveal that the dynamics in mixtures of ionic liquids are well defined by the fractions of their parent compounds.

Ionic liquids are a special category of molten salts with melting points near ambient temperatures or by convention below 100 C. Owing to their numerous valuable physicochemical properties as bulk liquids, solvents, at surfaces and in confined enviro
nments, ILs have attracted increasing attention in both academic and industrial communities in a variety of application areas involving physics, chemistry, material science and engineering. Due to their nearly limitless number of combinations of cation and anion pairs and mixtures with cosolvents, a molecular level understanding of their hierarchical structures and dynamics, requiring strategies to connect several length and time scales, is of crucial significance for rational design of ILs with desired properties, and thereafter refining their functional performance in applications. As an invaluable compliment to experiments from synthesis to characterization, computational modelling and simulations have significantly increased our understanding on how physicochemical and structural properties of ILs can be controlled by their underlying chemical and molecular structures. In this chapter, we will give examples from our own modelling work based on selected IL systems, with focus on imidazolium based and tetraalkylphosphonium orthoborate ILs, studied at several spatiotemporal scales in different environments and with particular attention to applications of high technological interest.
We develop the elastically collective nonlinear Langevin equation theory of bulk relaxation of glass-forming liquids to investigate molecular mobility under compression conditions. The applied pressure restricts more molecular motion and therefore si
gnificantly slows-down the molecular dynamics when increasing the pressure. We quantitatively determine the temperature and pressure dependence of the structural relaxation time. To validate our model, dielectric spectroscopy experiments for three rigid and non-polymeric supramolecules are carried out at ambient and elevated pressures. The numerical results quantitatively agree with experimental data.
Ionic Liquids (ILs) are organic molten salts characterized by the total absence of solvent. They show remarkable properties: low vapor pressure, high ionic conductivity, high chemical, thermal and electrochemical stability. These electrolytes meet th
erefore key criteria for the development of safe energy storage systems. Due to a competition between electrostatic and van der Walls interactions, ILs show an uncommon property for neat bulk liquids: they self-organize in transient nanometric domains. In ILs-based electrochemical devices, this fluctuating nano-segregation acts as energy barriers to the long range diffusional processes and hence to the ionic conductivity. Here, we show how the ionic conductivity of ILs can be increased by more than one order of magnitude by exploiting one dimensional (1D) confinement effects in macroscopically oriented carbon nanotube (CNT) membranes. We identify 1D CNT membranes as promising separators for high instant power batteries.
The material dispersion of the [Ckmim][BF4] (k = 2,3,4,6,7,8,10) family of ionic liquids is measured at several temperatures over a broad spectral range from 300 nm to 1550 nm. The experimental curves are fitted to a modified three-resonance Sellmeie
r model to understand the effect of temperature and alkyl chain length in the dispersion. From the parameters of the fitting, we analyze the influence that the different constituents of these ionic liquids have in the dispersion behaviour. In addition, a semi-empirical approach combining simulated electronic polarizabilities and experimental densities for predicting the material dispersion is successfully tested by direct comparison with the experimental results. The limitations of this method are analyzed in terms of the structure of the ionic liquids. The results of this work aim to increase our knowledge about how the structure of an ionic liquid influences its material dispersion. Understanding this influence is fundamental to produce ionic liquids with tailored optical properties.
We investigate the behavior of hydrated sulfonated polysulfones over a range of ion contents through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Experimental eviden
ce shows that at comparable ion contents, the spacing between the ionic groups along the polymer backbone can significantly impact the amount of melting water present in the polymer. When we only consider water molecules that can hydrogen bond to four neighboring water molecules as the melting water, the MD simulation results are found to agree with the experimental data. The states of water measured by DSC can therefore be described as aggregated (or bulk-like) for the melting component, and isolated for the nonmelting part. Using this physical picture, a polymer with more aggregated ions has a higher content of melting water, while a polymer at the same ion content but with more dispersed ions has a lower content of melting water. Therefore, ions should be well dispersed to minimize the amount of bulk-like water in ionic polymer membranes.
