The application of ionic liquids in the field of actinide and lanthanide chemistry has attracted considerable attention due to their unique properties, such as low volatility, enhanced thermal ...

How is a new type of liquid like the London Underground? In both, one must mind the gaps. Liquids contain spaces between their molecules, but they are tiny. Bubbles can be blown into liquids, but they ...

Real-time measurements provide missing insight into chemical separations to recover cobalt, a critical raw material used to make batteries and magnets for modern technologies. Results track the ...

During the past decade, ionic liquids, pyridinium-based ionic liquids in particular, have been actively and extensively explored. Compared with other solid or liquid materials, ionic liquids often ...

In a recent statement, Alfa Chemistry announced the release of monosubstituted imidazolium-based ionic liquids, another new product line added to its already comprehensively ranged offerings, covering ...

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – With the rising cost and dwindling supply of fossil fuels, nuclear power may again be considered a plausible energy option in the U.S. Safety is the public's major concern, and ...
