2-Hydroxyethylammonium formate
2-Hydroxyethylammonium formate is one of the simplest ionic liquids. This ionic liquid is miscible with many solvents, both aqueous and organic. It is a sustainable chemical because of its low volatility, high chemical and physical stability, recyclable, reusable, and easy to handle. Exemplary applications include
stable electrolytes in dye-sensitized solar cells, secondary batteries, electrochromic displays, supercapacitors, electrolytic membranes, fuel cells, electrochemical sensors or biosensors, and actuators
solvent for Ni electrodeposition
biorefinery solvent for biopolymers such as agarose, starch, cellulose, zein protein, etc.
solvent for synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles
