Recently a new class of air- and moisture-stable, neutral ionic liquids became available.

Instead of mercury, ionic liquids or other liquid metals could be used.

The solubility of hydrogen in ionic liquids is very low.

The most evident advantage of ionic liquids is environmental.

The resemblance of ionic liquids to table salt is in their chemical bonds.

Ionic liquids can be mixed together to tweak their properties further.

Many ionic liquids can be reused with minimal loss of activity.

You replied that "any ionic liquids, like salt water" conduct electricity.

Admittedly they do not conduct electricity very well compared with metals or the best ionic liquids.

Recent work has shown that ionic liquids can serve as solvents for biocatalysis.

With room temperature ionic liquids, the solvent can act as the electrolyte.

A lunar zenith telescope can be made cheaply with ionic liquid.

This mechanism is "important when considering the heating behavior of ionic liquids" within a microwave.

Their 65,000 tonne per year plant is claimed to be the biggest industrial application of ionic liquids to date.

The ionic liquid and water will then separate, and the clean water can be poured off.

Despite low vapor pressure many ionic liquids are combustible and therefore require careful handling.

The liquid used for this application tends to be a low volatility ionic liquid.

In addition to the environmental advantage, ionic liquids are often better than traditional solvents and can enable some new chemical reactions.

But chemists still lack fundamental understanding of how ionic liquids work, even simple properties like the melting temperature.

In 2007 Dupont and others reported hydrogen-storage materials based on imidazolium ionic liquids.

Any salt that melts without decomposing or vaporizing usually yields an ionic liquid.

These are ionic liquids based on imidazole chemistry.

These salts have been used as ionic liquids and precursors to stable carbenes.

Other methods have been investigated: by applying heat or via a combination of ionic liquid and microwave chemistry.
