Funded Activity Summary

Surfactant Self-Assembly in Ionic Liquids. Room temperature ionic liquids have emerged recently as important environmentally-friendly solvents for synthesis, catalysis, and electrochemical applications. This project will generate significant new fundamental understanding, and train young researchers in the use of RTILs and advanced characterization techniques at honours, postgraduate and postdoctoral levels. The results of this project will enable the development of new technologies by adapting water-based surfactant technologies to a range of low-volatility RTILs. Examples include new mesoporous catalysts, nanostructured self-assembled scaffolds and composite materials, nanoparticle synthesis, novel lubricants and drug-delivery systems.
