Funded Activity Summary

Adsorption and Structure at Ionic Liquid Interfaces. Ionic liquids (ILs) have recently emerged as important environmentally-friendly solvents for synthesis, but applications based on their unusual physical properties have been vastly under-exploited. This project will generate significant new fundamental understanding of ILs, and train young researchers in the use of ILs and advanced characterization techniques at honours, postgraduate and postdoctoral levels. The results of this project will enable the development of new or improved technologies by facilitating the use of ILs in specialised products. Examples include novel lubricants, catalytic mediums, surface coatings, nanostructured self-assembled scaffolds and composite materials, nanoparticle synthesis, and drug-delivery systems.
