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
     
  • Product Information
