1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Chloride (EMIM Cl)
High-Performance Ionic Liquid for Advanced Industrial and Green Chemistry Applications
1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Chloride, a room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL), is a colorless to pale yellow hygroscopic crystalline solid or viscous liquid. It exhibits excellent solubility in polar solvents (water, ethanol) , while being immiscible with non-polar solvents. With a melting point of 87-90°C and thermal stability up to 300°C under inert conditions, EMIM Cl combines low volatility with high ionic conductivity (>10 mS/cm at 25°C). The compound complies with REACH and ISO 9001 standards.
Key industrial applications include:
Green Chemistry:
·Solvent/catalyst for cellulose dissolution and biomass processing.
·Reaction medium for Friedel-Crafts alkylation and Diels-Alder reactions.
Energy Storage:
·Electrolyte additive for lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors.
·Ionic conductor in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs).
·Co-solvent for poorly water-soluble APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients).
·Stabilizer for protein formulations.
Electroplating:
·Non-aqueous electrolyte for aluminum and alloy coatings.
·Surface finishing agent for nanocrystalline metals.
