Description
Book SynopsisCritical overviews from the front line of ionic liquids research
Ionic Liquids Completely UnCOILed: Critical Expert Overviews concludes the discussion of new processes and developments in ionic liquid technology introduced in the previously published volumes, Ionic Liquids UnCOILed and Ionic Liquids Further UnCOILed.
The goal of this volume is to provide expert overviews that range from applied to theoretical, synthetic to structural, and analytical to toxicological. The value of book lies in the authors' expertise, and their willingness to share it with the reader.
Written by an international group of chemists, the book presents eleven overviews of specific areas of ionic liquid chemistry including:
- What is an Ionic Liquid?
- Molecular modelling
- Crystallography
- Chemical engineering of ionic liquid processes
- Toxicology and Biodegradation
- Organic reaction mechanisms
