Electrochemical Aspects of Ionic Liquids

Informationen zum Autor Hiroyuki Ohno, PhD , is a professor and Dean of the Institute of Symbiotic Science and a professor at the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology. He is renowned for his research and is a pioneer in the realm of ionic liquids and ion-conductive materials. The editor of the Wiley journal Polymers for Advanced Technologies , Professor Ohno has published more than 320 papers in the field of ionic liquids, as well as more than 145 reviews and book chapters. Klappentext Now updated-the indispensable guide to the latest techniques, research, and applications for ionic liquids Ionic liquids are salts that remain in a liquid state over a wide range of temperatures, including room temperature. They are becoming widely recognized as "green" solvents for various applications such as organic synthesis, separation technology, and electrochemistry. This Second Edition continues to present the most up-to-date information on this rapidly growing field, offering 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 basic electrochemistry techniques, equipment, and relevant electrochemical reactions and processes. Subsequent chapters explore 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. This updated and expanded edition also features: A new chapter on actuators Discussions on purification and the effects of impurities Coverage of adsorption of ionic liquids on interfaces and on the electrochemical double layer Electrochemical Aspects of Ionic Liquids, Second Edition provides chemists, chemical engineers, and 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. Praise for the First Edition " . . . 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 Zusammenfassung From the previous edition: ". provides an impressively readable book that. is understandable by and of value to students and scientists well outside the electrochemistry area.
