Ionic liquids have recently gained popularity in the scientific community owing to their special properties and characteristics. One of the reasons why ionic liquids have been termed "green solvents" is due to their negligible vapour pressure. Their use in electrochemical, biological and metal extraction applications is discussed. Wide research has been carried out for their use in batteries, solar panels, fuel cells, drug deliveries and biomass pretreatments. This work aims to consolidate the various findings from previous works in these areas.
离子液体由于其特殊的性质和特点,最近在科学界受到了广泛关注。离子液体之所以被称为“绿色溶剂”,一个原因是它们的蒸气压可以忽略不计。本文讨论了它们在电化学、生物和金属提取等领域的应用。人们广泛研究了它们在电池、太阳能电池板、燃料电池、药物输送和生物质预处理等方面的应用。这项工作旨在综合这些领域以前的工作中的各种发现。
