Generally, Nafion ionomer is used in the polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) electrodes to achieve high power density. At the high temperature operation of PEFC, however, ionic conductivity of Nafion remarkably decreased due to the evaporation of water in Nafion polymer. Recently, many researchers have focused on using the Ionic Liquids(ILs) instead of water in Nafion polymer. ILs have intrinsic properties such as good electrochemical stability, high ionic conductivity, and non-flammability. Especially, ILs play a crucial role in proton conduction by the Grottuss mechanism and act as water in water-free Nafion polymer. However, it was found that the ILs was leached out of the polymer matrix easily. In this study, we prepared membrane electrode assemblies with various contents of ILs. The effect of ILs in the electrode of each designed was investigated by a cyclic voltammetry measurement and the cell performance obtained through a single cell test using H2/Air gases. Electrodes with different contents of ILs in catalyst layer were examined at high temperature and low humidified condition.

이온성 액체는 $100^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 액체로 존재하는 이온성 염으로 낮은 휘발성, 비가연성, 높은 온도에서의 액체상 안정성, 유기물과 무기물에 대한 높은 용매화 능력, 높은 전기 전도성 등 독특한 화학적, 물리적, 전기적 특성을 갖고 있어 신 개념의 매체로 주목받고 있다. 특히, 이용 목적에 따라 양이온과 음이온을 다양하게 조합하여 그 특성을 변화시킬 수 있어서 디자이너 용매(designer solvent)라고도 불린다. 이온성 액체는 기존 화학산업을 비롯한 에너지, 재료, 전자 등 광범위한 산업분야에서 필수적으로 사용되는 휘발성 유기용매를 대체하여 환경유해물질의 배출을 원천적으로 방지하면서 반응선택성과 반응성을 향상시킬 수 있는 green media로 기대되고 있다. 본 총설에서는 이온성 액체의 구조, 특성, 응용분야와 연구동향에 대해 기술하였다.

Biopolymer-based materials recently have garnered considerable interest as they can decrease dependency on fossil fuel. Biopolymers are naturally obtainable macromolecules including polysaccharides, polyphenols, polyesters, polyamides, and proteins, that play an important role in biomedical applications such as tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, drug-delivery systems, and biosensors, because of their inherent biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, the insolubility of unmodified biopolymers in most organic solvents has limited the applications of biopolymer-based materials and composites. Ionic liquids (ILs) are good solvents for polar organic, nonpolar organic, inorganic and polymeric compounds. Biopolymers such as cellulose, chitin/chitiosan, silk, and DNA can be fabricated from ILs into films, membranes, fibers, spheres, and molded shapes. Various biopolymer/biopolymer and biopolymer/synthetic polymer composites also can be prepared by co-dissolution of polymers into IL mixtures. Heparin/biopolymer composites are especially of interest in preparing materials with enhanced blood compatibility.

New pyrrolidinium and piperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TFSI) ionic liquids (ILs) having allyl substituents were synthesized and characterized. All of them are liquid at room temperature and stable up to 300 oC. The pyrrolidinium-based ILs showed better conductivities and lower viscosities than the corresponding piperidinium-based ILs. Among them, 1-allyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium TFSI showed the lowest viscosity of 52 cP, the highest conductivity of 5.7 mS cm?1, and the most negative cathodic voltage window of ?3.2 V (vs. Fc/Fc+) on a platinum electrode, which are the improved results compared to the corresponding analogue having a saturated substituent, 1-methyl-1-propylpyrrolidinium TFSI.

Hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) is mainly produced along with methane and hydrocarbons in many gas fields as well as hydrodesulfurization processes of crude oils containing sulfur compounds and the emission of $H_2S$ has a considerable effect on both environmental problem and human health aspects due to formation of, e.g. acid rain and smog. In recent years, ionic liquids (ILs) have been proposed as the most promising solvents for $CO_2$ and hazardous pollutants capture, such as $H_2S$ and sulfur dioxide ($SO_2$). In this work, we demonstrate the use of the predictive COSMO-SAC model for the prediction of Henry's law constant of $H_2S$ in ILs. Furthermore, the method is used to screen for potential IL candidates for $H_2S$ capture from a set of 2,624 ILs formed from 82 cations and 32 anions. The effects of cation on the Henry's law constant of $H_2S$ such as (i) the variation of the alkyl chain length on cation, (ii) the substituent of methyl group ($-CH_3$) for H in C(2) position and (iii) the change of ring structure for cation family are clearly predicted by COSMO-SAC model.

Ionic Liquids (ILs) 는 표준상태에서 액체이온으로 존재하는 물질로 여러 가지 방법으로 다양한 특성을 띄게 할 수 있다. 이런 성질을 적절하게 이용하여 계면활성제 등 다양한 분야로의 응용이 가능하다. ILs의 한 종류인 1-10-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide([C10mim][Br]) 은 특정한 환경에서 양친매성을 가진다. 이번 논문에서 우리는 분자동역학을 이용하여 수용액에서의 [C10mim][Br]의 응집 거동에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 정준모듬(canonical ensemble)을 이용하여 모사 간 시스템의 부피와 온도를 일정하게 유지시키고 5ns 동안의 전산모사를 통하여 얻은 radial distribution function(RDF)을 이용하여 [C10mim][Br]과 물 분자간의 상호작용 및 그 분포의 특성에 대하여 논의하였다. 분자동역학적 계산을 위하여 LAMMPS 코드를 사용하였고, VMD 코드를 이용하여 후처리(post processing)을 진행하였다.

Lignocellulosic biomass has recalcitrant characteristics against chemical and biological conversion due to its structural heterogeneity and complexity. The pretreatment process to overcome these recalcitrant properties is essential, especially for the biochemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass. In recent years, pretreatment methods using ionic liquids (ILs) and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as the green solvent has attracted great attention because of their advantages such as easy recovery, chemical stability, temperature stability, nonflammability, low vapor pressure, and wide liquids range. However, there are some limitations such as high viscosity, poor economical feasibility, etc. to be solved for practical use. This paper reviewed the research activities on the pretreatment effect of various ILs including DESs and their co-solvents with organic solvents on the enzymatic saccharification efficiency of lignocellulosic biomass and the nanocellulose preparation from the pretreated products.

The incorporation of room temperature ionic liquids (IL) in poly (ethyleneoxide)-lithium salt (PEO-LiX) based solid polymer electrolytes is presently being studied as an effective means of enhancing the room temperature ionic conductivity of these electrolytes to acceptable levels for use in lithium batteries. In the present study, $PEO_{20}-LiTFSI$ solid polymer electrolyte was blended with three different ionic liquids, namely 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (BMIMTFSI), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetraflouroborate (BMIMBF4) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluromethanesulfonate ($BMIMCF_{3}SO_{3}$). The incorporation of all these ILs resulted in the enhancement of ionic conductivity, the effect being more pronounced at lower temperatures. Electrochemical properties of the blended electrolytes were studied by cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry and interfacial resistance measurements. The optimum results were obtained with the blending of BMIMTFSI in the solid polymer electrolyte.
