چکیده

Significant non-reversible two-state denaturation was observed for proteins such as myoglobin (Mb) and α-chymotrypsin (CT) with decreasing temperature in the presence of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium-based ([C4mim](+)X(-)) ionic liquids (ILs) with various anions (X(-)). Interestingly, for the first time, ILs having acetate and bromide anions were proven to counteract the cold-induced unfolding of proteins.

An Improvement to the Properties of GAP Binder with Energetic Ionic Liquids

Glycidyl azide polymer (GAP) is used as a binder in the propellants. Energetic ionic liquids are used as a plasticizer to correct the properties of polymer. In this study, first ionic liquid was bonded to the GAP by certain amount and then the energetic anions of nitrate (NO3) and azide (N3) were used to exchange anion. FTIR analyses confirm accurately anions exchange. DSC, viscometer and heat ...

H-imidazolium Acidic Ionic Liquids as Efficient Catalysts in the Synthesis of Xanthenes under Solvent-Free Conditions

Bifunctional acidic ionic liquids, having both H-imidazolium and -SO3H groups as cation moieties (H-BFAILs) and CF3SO3- as anion, were synthesized in high yields. These H-BFAILs showed significant hydrophilic properties, lower acidity and higher thermal stability relative to common ionic liquids, due to their unique structures. The (propyl or butyl-3-sulfonic) imidazolium trifluoromethane sulfo...

Modeling the Solubility of Acid Gases in Ionic Liquids

In this work, the PC-SAFT equation of state (EoS) has been used to model the solubility of acid gases (CO2 and H2S) in two imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) ([C8-mim][PF6] and [C8-mim][Tf2N]). Parameters of pure ILs were estimated using experimental densities. Two strategies were considered to model densities of pure ILs. In strategy 1, ILs were modeled as nonassociating compounds and in st...
