In 2019,Journal of Materials Chemistry A: Materials for Energy and Sustainability included an article by Ying, Wen; Hou, Quangang; Chen, Danke; Guo, Yi; Li, Zhuoyi; Zhang, Jun; Yan, Youguo; Peng, Xinsheng. Synthetic Route of C8H15BF4N2. The article was titled 《Electrical field facilitates selective transport of CO2 through a laminated MoS2 supported ionic liquid membrane》. The information in the text is summarized as follows:
Ionic liquid (IL), a neutral assembly of charged ions, is a potential material for CO2 capture and storage. The practicality of IL can be improved by confining it into porous substrates and nanopores, which will further enhance the performance of IL by changing its structure. Addnl., an external elec. field (EEF) should also affect the IL structure through its charged components. In this work, an EEF is applied on a MoS2 supported ionic liquid membrane (MoS2-SILM) to selectively facilitate CO2 transport by the dual effect of MoS2 nanochannel and EEF. The redistribution of nanoconfined IL under an EEF resulted in the increase in free volume of IL and decrease in anion-cation interactions, which led to the enhancement of CO2 solubility and diffusion, and further, the permeance. Compared with the MoS2-SILM without an EEF, the CO2 permeance was enhanced from 89-200 GPU, and the selectivity of CO2/H2, CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2 was also enlarged 2-3 times. An interesting phenomenon was the asym. CO2 separation performance affected by the CO2 adsorbed on MoS2 nanosheets under a pos. and neg. EEF, which may establish a new strategy to design high-performance gas separation membranes. The results came from multiple reactions, including the reaction of 3-Butyl-1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium tetrafluoroborate(cas: 174501-65-6Synthetic Route of C8H15BF4N2)
3-Butyl-1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium tetrafluoroborate(cas: 174501-65-6) is a member of lonic liquids. A multidisciplinary study on lonic liquids is emerging, including chemistry, materials science, chemical engineering, and environmental science. More specifically, some important fundamental viewpoints are now different from the original concepts, as insights into the nature of lonic liquids become deeper. For example, the physicochemical properties of lonic liquids are now recognized as ranging broadly from the oft quoted “nonvolatile, non-flammable, and air and water stable” to those that are distinctly volatile, flammable, and unstable.
