Electrochemical Aspects of Ionic Liquids
Editorial Reviews
Review
"…editor Ohno provides an impressively readable book that, despite a title suggesting a narrow focus, is understandable by and of value to students and scientists well outside the electrochemistry area." (CHOICE, November 2005)
“…provides the latest data for engineers and researchers in relevant industries, as well as academic scientists and graduate students.” (The Chemical Engineer, September 2004)
Book Description
An indispensable survey of the latest techniques, research, and applications for ionic liquids-with special emphasis on their electrochemical attributes
Ionic liquids have received increasing attention in basic research in recent years and are drawing great interest as a "greener" replacement for volatile organic solvents. Ionic liquids are salts that remain in a liquid state over a wide range of temperatures, including room temperature. Their special properties make them suitable for such applications as organic synthesis, separation technology, and electrochemistry, and they hold promising potential for future technological applications. Currently, however, only a few scientists and engineers have in-depth knowledge of ionic liquids, and even fewer electrochemists are currently working with these special salts.
Electrochemical Aspects of Ionic Liquids presents the most up-to-date guide to this growing area of interest. The text offers nonspecialists an overview of fundamentals, while providing researchers and advanced students with clear descriptions of the latest findings, applications, and future possibilities of ionic liquids. Preliminary chapters outline the importance and general properties of ionic liquids, as well as a general review of basic electrochemistry techniques, equipment, and relevant electrochemical reactions and processes. Subsequent chapters go into relevant areas of biochemistry, ionic devices, functional design of ionic liquids, ionic liquid gels, and polymerized ionic liquids-including some highly specialized and novel developments such as ionic liquidized DNA.
Electrochemical Aspects of Ionic Liquids provides electrochemists in academia and in industry alike with the information needed to realize the great advantages of using ionic liquids. Moreover, potential applications of these special salts are not limited to electrochemistry; some functional-designed ionic liquids may impact the development of novel materials and advanced devices.
