- Five new ionic materials comprising fluorine-free aromatic heterocyclic anions based on pyridine and pyrazine combined with a common n-tetrabutylphosphonium cation, (P4444)+, result in two room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), one semi-solid, and two organic ionic plastic crystals (OIPCs) with melting points >20 °C. The OIPCs showed a plastic crystalline phase, multiple solid–solid transitions, and plastic crystalline and melt phases. For both the neat RTILs and the Li+ conducting electrolytes, the nature and strength of the ion–ion interactions mainly depend on the position of the nitrogen atom with respect to the carboxylate group in the anions. Furthermore, for the RTILs the ionic conductivity is effected by the electronic structure and flexibility of the ions and the anions diffuse faster than the (P4444)+ cation, but are slowed down in the electrolytes due to the strong electrostatic interactions between the carboxylate group of the anions and the Li+, as shown both experimentally and computationally. Overall, this study describes the effect of structural tuning of aromatic anions on the ion–ion interactions and introduces new ionic materials with promising properties to be used as solid and liquid electrolytes in energy storage devices.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Five new n-tetrabutylphosphonium (P4444)+ cation based ionic liquids (ILs) with oligoether substituted aromatic carboxylate anions have been synthesized. The nature and position of the oligoether chain affect thermal stability (up to 330 ºC), phase behaviour (Tg < -55 ºC) and ion transport. Furthermore, with the aim of application in lithium batteries, electrolytes were created for two of the ILs by 10 mol% doping using the corresponding Li-salts. This affects the ion diffusion negatively, from being higher and equal for cations and anions to lower for all ions and unequal. This is due to the stronger ionic interactions and formation of aggregates, primarily between the Li+ ions and the carboxylate group of the anions. Electrochemically, the electrolytes have electrochemical stability windows up to 3.5 V, giving some promise for battery application.

Pyrrolidium- and Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquids and Electrolytes with Flexible Oligoether Anions

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A new class of fluorine-free ionic liquids (ILs) and electrolytes based on aliphatic flexible oligoether anions, 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)acetate (MEA) and 2-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]acetate (MEEA), coupled with pyrrolidinium and imidazolium cations is introduced. For the ILs with MEEA anions, Li+ conducting electrolytes are created by doping the ILs with 30 mol % of LiMEEA. The structural flexibility of the oligoether functionality in the anion results in glass transition temperatures (Tg) as low as −60 °C for the neat ILs and the electrolytes. The imidazolium-based ILs and electrolytes reveal better thermal stabilities but higher Tg and lower electrochemical stabilities than the corresponding pyrrolidinium-based analogues. All neat ILs show comparable transport properties for the cations and these decrease by the addition of lithium salt – the pyrrolidinium-based electrolyte being affected the most.

Abnormal diffusion behavior and aggregation of oxyethylated alkylphenols in aqueous solutions near their cloud point

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We have investigated solutions of oxyethylated alkylphenols (neonols) in a mixture of ordinary and heavy water with equal densities of the neonols and the aqueous mixture. The equal densities allow exclusion of sedimentation effects and study of the evolution of micelles and neonol aggregates in the range from room temperature to above the cloud point. The self-diffusion coefficients of neonols were measured by NMR and the effective hydrodynamic radii of micelles and neonol aggregates were calculated using the Stokes-Einstein relation. An abnormal decrease in neonols diffusion coefficients occurred when the system approached the cloud point, while an abnormal increase in the diffusion coefficients occurred at temperatures above the cloud point. We explained the abnormal temperature behavior of the diffusion coefficients of neonols by changes in the size of the diffusing objects from the spherical and spherocylindrical micelles to dehydrated aggregates and the destruction of micelles by thermal motion and by formation of aggregates with sizes of the order 102 nm at temperatures above the cloud point. Conclusions about the increase in the hydrodynamic radii of the micelles with increasing temperature up to the cloud point and about the formation of dehydrated aggregates above the cloud point are confirmed by the results of DLS studies.

- We examined a series of amino acid-based surfactants with two carboxylic groups separated by a spacer of one, two, or three carbon atoms with sodium and calcium counterions in the premicellar concentration region near the CMC. 1H NMR spectroscopy and NMR diffusometry techniques were used to study the local environment, association and translational dynamics of the surfactant’s molecules. We measured the self-diffusion coefficients of the micelles, calculated the effective hydrodynamic radii, and determined the temperature region in which the premicelles exist. With an increase in temperature from 295 to 335 K, the premicellar state of the surfactant is replaced by the monomeric state.

Extraction of phenol from the solutions at their cloud points was also studied.

- We studied the micellar and solubilizing properties of aqueous solutions of unfractionated rhamnolipids produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We used nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) diffusometry, dynamic light scattering, and conductometry to measure the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of rhamnolipid solutions and determined the effective hydrodynamic radii of rhamnolipid monomers and micelles. Based on selective measurements of the self-diffusion coefficients of molecules, performed by NMR diffusometry, the solubilizing properties of rhamnolipids were studied depending on their concentration in solution; aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and para-xylene were taken as solubilizates. On the basis of the measurement results, we estimated the distribution coefficient of the solubilizate between the micellar (solubilized) and free (in the aqueous phase) states and the solubilizing capacity of rhamnolipid micelles.

- We have measured the self-diffusion coefficients and calculated the effective hydrodynamic radii of micelles of ethoxylated isononylphenols in aqueous solutions in the presence of sodium chloride, as well as in their binary mutual mixtures, when approaching cloudy conditions. These cloudy conditions were created by an increase in temperature, a change in the concentration of an electrolyte in the solution, or a mutual ratio of neonols in their binary mixtures. The results are discussed within the concept of the hydrophilic–lipophilic balance.

- Translational diffusion coefficients of ethoxylated isononylphenol molecules C9H19C6H4O(C2H4O)nH in carbon tetrachloride were measured by nuclear magnetic resonance diffusometry. The hydrodynamic radii of the molecules were determined within the framework of the Stokes–Einstein relation. We showed that ethoxylated isononylphenols in carbon tetrachloride do not form micelles, and the dependence of the diffusion coefficients and, accordingly, the hydrodynamic radii of the nonionic surfactants on the number of oxyethylene groups have a kink in the region n = 6–8.

- Aggregation numbers were calculated based on measurements of the self-diffusion coefficients, the effective hydrodynamic radii of micelles and aggregates of oxyethylated alkylphenols in aqueous solutions. On the assumption that the radii of spherical micelles are equal to the lengths of fully extended neonol molecules, the limiting values of aggregation numbers corresponding to spherically shaped neonol micelles were calculated. The concentration and temperature ranges under which spherical micelles of neonols are formed were determined.

- Self‐diffusion coefficients of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) were measured in aqueous solutions in the premicellar range of the SDS concentrations 7‐34.7 mM and temperatures 30‐900C. Average effective hydrodynamic radii and aggregation numbers of SDS in the premicellar region were determined. At C < CMC at all temperatures, the SDS solution is the solution of monomers. At C > CMC the increase of temperature leads to decrease in the effective hydrodynamic radii and the average aggregation numbers. At C >> CMC, it is impossible to reach the monomeric state by increasing the temperature.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Alkali metal salts usually have high melting points due to strong electrostatic interactions and solvents are needed to create ambient temperature liquid electrolytes. Here, we report on six phosphate-anion-based alkali metal salts, Li/Na/K, all of which are liquids at room temperature, with glass transition temperatures ranging from −61 to −29 °C, and are thermally stable up to at least 225 °C. While the focus herein is on various physico-chemical properties, these salts also exhibit high anodic stabilities, up to 6 V vs. M/M+ (M = Li/Na/K), and deliver some battery performance - at elevated temperatures as there are severe viscosity limitations at room-temperature. While the battery performance arguably is sub-par, solvent-free electrolytes based on alkali metal salts such as these should pave the way for conceptually different Li/Na/K-batteries, either by refined anion design or by using several salts to create eutectic mixtures.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- New structurally flexible 1-methyl- and 1,2-dimethyl-imidazolium phosphate ionic liquids (ILs) bearing oligoethers have been synthesized and thoroughly characterized. These novel ILs revealed high thermal stabilities, low glass transitions, high conductivity and wide electrochemical stability windows up to 6 V. Both anions and cations of 1-methyl-imidazolium ILs diffuse faster than the ions of 1,2-dimethyl-imidazolium ILs, as determined by pulsed field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance (PFG-NMR). The 1-methyl-imidazolium phosphate ILs showed relatively higher ionic conductivities and ion diffusivity as compare with the 1,2-dimethyl-imidazolium phosphate ILs. As expected, the diffusivity of all the anions and cations increases with an increase in the temperature. The 1-methyl-imidazolium phosphate ILs formed hydrogen bonding with the phosphate anions, the strength of which is decreased with increasing temperature, as confirmed by variable temperature 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy. One of the representative IL, [EmDMIm][DEEP], presented a promising performance at elevated temperatures as an electrolyte in a supercapacitor composed of multiwall carbon nanotubes and activated charcoal (MWCNTs/AC) composite electrodes.

- Ion transport measures and details as well as physico-chemical and electrochemical properties are presented for a small set of structurally flexible pyrrolidinium (Pyrr) and morpholinium (Morph) cation-based ionic liquids (ILs), all with oligoether phosphate-based anions. All have high thermal stabilities, low glass transition temperatures, and wide electrochemical stability windows, but rather moderate ionic conductivities, whereas both the anions and the cations of the Pyrr-based ILs diffuse faster than those of the Morph-based ILs. Overall the former ILs have significantly more promise as high-temperature supercapacitor electrolytes, rendering a specific capacitance of 164 F g−1 at 1 mV s−1, a power density of 241 W kg−1 and a specific energy density of 30 Wh kg−1 at 90 °C in a symmetric graphite supercapacitor.

CO2 absorption and ion mobility in aqueous choline-based ionic liquids

- CO2 absorption and ion mobility are investigated in a series of 50/50 wt% aqueous solutions of choline-based ionic liquids with different cations and anions: [N1,1,4,2OH][Threo], [N1,1,5,2OH][Threo], [N1,1,6,2OH][Threo], [N1,1,5,2OH][β-ala] and [N1,1,5,2OH][Tau]. The process of CO2 absorption was completed in an hour reaching maximum of absorption capacity 0.07–0.10 wt% to ionic liquid (by 0.4–0.6 molar ratios). A rapid CO2 absorption is observed by the formation of solid product as a result of reaction between CO2 molecule and the ionic liquid. Diffusion coefficients of the cation and anion in the mixture are comparable while the diffusivity of water molecules is found to be quite different from the ions. In the process of CO2 absorption, an increase in the diffusivity of ions is observed due to the precipitation of solid products and depletion of ions contents in the liquid phase of the system. 13C NMR measurements of diffusivity of CO2 enriched with 13C isotope showed that a part of the absorbed CO2 remained in the liquid phase being physically and chemically bound to ions. The ionic liquid is re-cycled by evaporating water and releasing CO2 molecules using vacuum and temperature.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Non-halogenated boron-based ionic liquids (ILs) composed of phosphonium cations and chelated orthoborate anions have high hydrolytic stability, low melting point and exceptional properties for various applications. This study is focused on ILs with the same type of cation, trihexyltetradecylphosphonium ([P6,6,6,14]+), and two orthoborate anions, such as bis(salicylato)borate ([BScB]−) and bis(oxalato)borate ([BOB]−). We compare the results of this study with our previous studies on ILs with bis(mandelato)borate ([BMB]−) and a variety of different cations (tetraalkylphosphonium, dialkylpyrrolidinium and dialkylimidazolium). The ion dynamics and phase behavior of these ILs is studied using 1H and 11B pulsed-field-gradient (PFG) NMR. PFG NMR is demonstrated to be a useful tool to elucidate the dynamics of ions in this class of phosphonium orthoborate ILs. In particular, the applicability of 11B PFG NMR for studying anions without 1H, such as [BOB]−, and the limitations of this technique to measure self-diffusion of ions in ILs are demonstrated and discussed in detail for the first time.

Diffusivity of ethylammonium nitrate protic ionic liquid confined in porous glasses

-
Ingår i: Journal of Molecular Liquids. - : Elsevier. - 0167-7322 .- 1873-3166. ; 356

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We studied the diffusion of ionic liquid ethylammonium nitrate confined within pores of two types of porous glass, Vycor and Varapor, with average pore sizes of 4 nm and 9.8 nm, respectively, by 1H NMR in the temperature range of 295–325 K. The diffusional behavior of the ionic liquid corresponds to long-term diffusion in a system of interconnected pores. It was shown that the diffusivity of EAN confined in Varapor is controlled by the porous system’s tortuosity and does need to take into consideration the interaction with the surface of the discrete pore walls. In the case of Vycor, the long-term diffusivity is a factor 1.5 lower than that expected in the absence of interaction with the pore walls. Two possible mechanisms that may explain this discrepancy are the EAN-surface interaction and retardation of EAN diffusion compared to n-decane in smaller pores present in Vycor porous glass due to pore size distribution. Confinement of EAN in nanoporous glass does not leads to the EAN phase transformation observed earlier for alkylammonium nitrates enclosed in a micrometer-sized layer. Prolonged exposure of EAN to a strong static magnetic field does not leads to changes in the NMR and diffusivity of EAN over time.

- Self-diffusion of ions in the protic ionic liquid ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) was studied by 1H NMR pulsed field gradient techniques between 294 and 393 K in the presence of a PTFE insert in a 5-mm NMR tube. At all temperatures, the bulk diffusion of ions (measured by 1H and 15N NMR) can be described by a unique diffusion coefficient. The presence of solid hydrophobic surfaces of PTFE induces regions of EAN in their vicinity, where diffusion of ions, both cations and anions, is reduced compared to the bulk values. An additional line-shape analysis in 1H NMR spectra showed that local mobility of ethylammonium cations in the surface layers near PTFE is also reduced.

Effect of magnetic field on diffusion of ethylammonium nitrate : water mixtures confined between polar glass plates
- 2018
-
Ingår i: Journal of Molecular Liquids. - : Elsevier. - 0167-7322 .- 1873-3166. ; 4, s. 45-51

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We used 1H NMR diffusometry to study mixtures of ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) with water (3.1–12.4 mol% of added H2O) confined between polar glass plates and exposed to a static magnetic field of 9.4 T. The presence of such restrictions reverses the concentration dependence of the diffusivities of the EA (ethylammonium) cation and water typical for the bulk system. The presence of water weakens the effects of a static magnetic field on diffusion of the EA cation as well as on proton exchange of –NH3 groups. Surprisingly, the amplitude of the echo signal of water protons decreases during exposure to the magnetic field and finally disappears, a phenomenon that depends on the concentration of water in the system. Based on experimental data, we suggest that water in the system is present in two states with different dynamic properties. One type of water formed in confinement possesses NMR relaxation time typical for liquids; its diffusivity can be measured by 1H NMR. The second type of water is formed upon exposure of the sample of the first type to the magnetic field and eventually includes all the water in the system. This type of water possesses “solid-like” NMR relaxation features that makes it “invisible” to the NMR diffusometry technique. We suggest that this second type of water is adsorbed onto the glass plates. Correspondingly, EAN exists in two liquid phases: the first one contains an EAN-water mixture, while the second one contains neat EAN, and forms on the microscopic scale range under the influence of a static magnetic field.

Effect of rotating magnetic field on the diffusivity of ethylammonium nitrate ionic liquid confined between micrometer-spaced glass plates

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We studied changes in the diffusion coefficients in layers of EAN confined between glass plates, placed in a strong magnetic field with a magnetic flux density B0, and rotated around the axis directed along and normal to B0. Under the rotational conditions along B0, the diffusion coefficient decreases with time after placement in the magnetic field at the same rate as for a static sample, observed previously (Filippov and Antzutkin, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 2018. 20. 6316). However, when the EAN layers are rotating around the axis perpendicular to B0, the duration of exposure to the magnetic field does not affect the diffusion coefficient until the rotation stops. On the other hand, the diffusivity after extended exposure to a static magnetic field increases as the sample starts to rotate around the axis perpendicular to B0. The observed effects are due to either the periodic change in the orientation of the thin surface layers of EAN or inhomogeneity of B0 in the sample due to the B0 fluctuation.

- 1-Ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium acetate ([EMIM][OAc]) is one of the most widely used ionic liquids for various applications. This study is focussed on the chemical stability of [EMIM][OAc] on the surfaces of polar glass plates. 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and NMR diffusometry of [EMIM][OAc] IL confined between glass plates with a specific surface area 105–106 m−1 are thoroughly investigated. A rapid and spontaneous reaction took place on the surfaces of glass plates leading to the formation of neutral chemical moieties as evident by the appearance of new signals in the 1H NMR spectra. These new products are assigned as N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and acetic acid. These neutral chemical moieties have significantly increased the ion diffusivity by dissociation of the cation and the anion in [EMIM][OAc] IL. The yield and rate of formation of NHC and acetic acid are found to increase with the increasing surface area of polar glass plates and the time of contact between the IL and glass surfaces. Based on NMR spectroscopy, a dissociative reaction mechanism is proposed for the formation of free NHC in the neat [EMIM][OAc] IL.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- CO2 absorption in a series of choline-based ionic liquids is investigated using solid-state 13C and 15N MAS NMR spectroscopy. Natural abundance and 13C enriched CO2 gas was purged through 50 wt% aqueous solutions of alkyldimethyl(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium threonine, [N1,1,n,2OH][Threo], (alkyl = butyl, pentyl and hexyl) and pentyldimethyl(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium taurine [N1,1,5,2OH][Tau]. The process of CO2 absorption results in precipitation of a solid sediment, which stays in equilibrium with the liquid phase. Upon degassing of the sample, the sediment is dissolved back into the IL-aqueous phase. Solid state 13C and 15N MAS NMR data suggest that the solid sediment is composed of neutral threonine (or taurine) in the zwitterionic forms and the liquid phase contained the products of reactions between the ionic liquids and CO2 molecules. A plausible mechanism for formation of the solid sediments and the reaction products in liquid phases is suggested.

- Alkylammonium nitrate protic ionic liquids (ILs), when placed between flat polar borosilicate glass plates, have demonstrated enhanced diffusivity and the gradual decrease of diffusivity after exposure to an external static magnetic field (Filippov et al., 2018). This phenomenon has been explained by phase transformations taking place in the ILs. In this study, we observed similar processes occurring in systems prepared with ethylammonium nitrate confined between quartz plates. A higher content of silicon oxide in the plates does not significantly alter the phenomenon previously found in the system prepared with borosilicate glass plates. For the first time, we have observed similar effects of confinement and magnetic field on the aprotic IL, 1‑ethyl‑3‑methylimidazolium nitrate. Substitution of the ethylammonium cation with a 1‑ethyl‑3‑methylimidazolium cation slows down the kinetics and increases magnitude of the processes occurring in the IL exposed to a magnetic field. We suggested that the main factor determining these effects is the presence and modification of the hydrogen-bonding network in the studied protic and aprotic ILs. The process of inverse phase transformation for the confined ethylammonium nitrate after removing the sample from the magnetic field was observed and analysed.

- Ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) ionic liquid confined between flat polar glass platesdemonstrates variable diffusivity that is sensitive to an external static magnetic field. Outside the magnetic field, diffusivity between the plates is higher than that in the bulk. However, after placing the system in a strong static magnetic field, the diffusivity gradually decreased. These processes occur during transformations between phases formed in EAN subjected to micrometer-size restrictions outside and within the magnetic field (Filippov et al., J. Mol. Liq. [2018] 268, 49). In this study, we used samples of two types: (i) with roughened surface formed by treatment of the glass plates with aqueous solutions of hydrofluoric acid and (ii) with vacuum deposited TiO2 layers with a thickness of ca. 1 μm at glass-plate edges. Neither the surface modification of the glass plates, nor the TiO2 layers controlled thickness of EAN confined between glass-plates significantly changed the above-described effects, which have been observed in studies using untreated glass plates. Therefore, the range of systems with detected phase transformations in EAN and accompanying effects, such as accelerated diffusivity and change in diffusivity under the influence of a static magnetic field, was expanded to the systems with roughened surfaces and the systems with TiO2 layers controlled inter-plates distances. Results of experiments with roughened surfaces additionally suggested that the phase transformation of confined EAN in the external magnetic field is isotropic in nature rather than a phase transition from “layered to bulk” structures.
