The Brønsted acidic ionic liquid ([BMIm]HSO4) catalyzed three-component synthesis of 2H-indazolo[2,1-b]phthalazine-trione derivatives at room temperature. The integrity of the ionic liquid remains reasonably unchanged when it is separated from the reaction mixture by water extraction, as it can be recycled several times without any loss of activity in each of the title syntheses. The products a...

Mixed solutions of konjac glucomannan supplemented with xanthan and alginate were studied using the technique of sedimentation velocity in the analytical ultracentrifuge. Interactions – as manifested by changes in the sedimentation coefficient distributions compared to unmixed controls – were observed for ternary mixtures in the presence of alginate. The complexes observed also appeared sensiti...

A systematic study of the interactions between water and alkyl methyl imidazolium chloride ionic liquids at 298.2 K, based on activity coefficients estimated from water activity measurements in the entire solubility range, is presented. The results show that the activity coefficients of water in the studied ILs are controlled by the hydrophilicity of the cation and the cation-anion interaction....

This paper suggests a macroscopic model describing the thermo-chemo-mechanical behaviour of ceramic dense membrane for oxygen separation application. This work takes in account to oxygen permeation and strain induced by stoichiometry variation with working conditions. This model, developed within the traditional framework of phenomenological approach, is based on the assumption of strain partit...

Gas-to-RTIL (room-temperature ionic liquid) partition coefficients have been compiled for 592 different solute-RTIL combinations. These partition coefficients were converted into water-to-RTIL partition coefficients using the corresponding gas-to-water partition coefficients. Both sets of partition coefficients were analyzed using the Abraham solvation parameter model with cation-specific and a...

In the present study, in order to predict the activity coefficient of inorganic ions, 12 cases of aqueous chloride solution were considered (AClx=1,2; A=Li, Na, K, Rb, Mg, Ca, Ba, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni). For this study, the UNIQUAC thermodynamic model is desired and its adjustable parameters are optimized with the Genetic + PSO algorithm. The optimization of the UNIQUAC model with PSO+ genetic algorit...

BACKGROUND Ionic liquids (ILs) found a variety of applications in today's chemistry. Since their properties depend on the ions constituting particular ionic liquid, it is possible to synthetize IL with desired specification, dependently on its further function. However, this task is not trivial, since knowledge regarding the influence of particular ion on the property of concern is crucial. The...
