Novel Ionic Conducting Composite Membrane Based on Polymerizable Ionic Liquids

ABSTRACT: In this work, the design and characterization of new supported ionic liquid membranes, as medium-temperature polymer electrolyte membranes for fuel-cell application, are described. These membranes were elaborated by the impregnation of porous polyimide Matrimid® with different synthesized protic ionic liquids containing polymerizable vinyl, allyl, or methacrylate groups. The ionic liquid polymerization was optimized in terms of the nature of the used (photo)initiator, its quantity, and reaction duration. The mechanical and thermal properties, as well as the proton conductivities of the supported ionic liquid membranes were analyzed in dynamic and static modes, as a function of the chemical structure of the protic ionic liquid. The obtained membranes were found to be flexible with Young’s modulus and elongation at break values were equal to 1371 MPa and 271%, respectively. Besides, these membranes exhibited high thermal stability with initial decomposition temperatures > 300 °C. In addition, the resulting supported membranes possessed good proton conductivity over a wide temperature range (from 30 to 150 °C). For example, the three-component Matrimid®/vinylimidazolium/polyvinylimidazolium trifluoromethane sulfonate membrane showed the highest proton conductivity—~5 × 10−2 mS/cm and ~0.1 mS/cm at 100 °C and 150 °C, respectively. This result makes the obtained membranes attractive for medium-temperature fuel-cell application.

Polymerizable Choline- and Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquids Reinforced with Bacterial Cellulose for 3D-Printing.

Project description:In this work, a novel approach is demonstrated for 3D-printing of bacterial cellulose (BC) reinforced UV-curable ion gels using two-component solvents based on 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride or choline chloride combined with acrylic acid. Preservation of cellulose's crystalline and nanofibrous structure is demonstrated using wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Rheological measurements reveal that cholinium-based systems, in comparison with imidazolium-based ones, are characterised with lower viscosity at low shear rates and improved stability against phase separation at high shear rates. Grafting of poly(acrylic acid) onto the surfaces of cellulose nanofibers during UV-induced polymerization of acrylic acid results in higher elongation at break for choline chloride-based compositions: 175% in comparison with 94% for imidazolium-based systems as well as enhanced mechanical properties in compression mode. As a result, cholinium-based BC ion gels containing acrylic acid can be considered as more suitable for 3D-printing of objects with improved mechanical properties due to increased dispersion stability and filler/matrix interaction.

Dimensional Control in Polyoxometalate Crystals Hybridized with Amphiphilic Polymerizable Ionic Liquids.

Project description:Ionic liquids are an important component for constructing functional materials, and polyxometalate cluster anion is a promising partner for building inorganic-organic hybrid materials comprising ionic liquids. In such hybrid materials, the precise control of the molecular arrangement in the bulk structures is crucial for the emergence of characteristic functions, which can be realized by introducing an amphiphilic moiety into the ionic liquids. Here, an amphiphilic polymerizable imidazolium ionic liquid with a methacryloyl group was firstly hybridized with polyoxometalate anions of octamolybdate ([Mo8O26]4-, Mo8) and silicotungstate ([SiW12O40]4-, SiW12) to obtain inorganic-organic hybrid crystals. The polymerizable ionic liquid with a octyl chain (denoted as MAImC8) resulted in the formation of anisotropic molecular arrangements in the bulk crystal structure, which was compared with the hybrid crystals composed from the polymerizable ionic liquid without a long alkyl chain (denoted as MAIm). Rather densely packed isotropic molecular arrangements were observed in the hybrid crystals of MAIm-Mo8 and MAIm-SiW12 due to the lack of the amphiphilic moiety. On the other hand, using the amphiphilic MAImC8 cation gave rise to a honeycomb-like structure with the Mo8 anion and a layered structure with the SiW12 anion, respectively.

Transcriptional toxicity of imidazolium- and cholinium-based ionic liquids

Project description:Ionic Liquids are a broad group of salts with low melting points that can be specifically tuned for a broad range of applications. Despite being initially considered “green” solvents, their better environmental friendliness compared to traditional solvents has been increasingly challenged. In this study, we aimed to investigate the molecular effects of ILs exposure by using RNA-sequencing to study differential gene expression patterns. Thus, we exposed Daphnia magna to 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C2mim]Cl), 1-dodecyl chloride-3-methylimidazolium ([C12mim]Cl) and cholinium chloride ([Chol]Cl). Results suggest that the three ILs share several mechanisms of toxicity, including cellular membrane and cytoskeleton damage, oxidative stress, inhibition of antioxidant enzymes, mitochondrial affectation, changes in protein biosynthesis and energy production, DNA damage, and ultimately, programmed cell death and disease initiation. Overall, the dataset revealed that [C2mim]Cl and [C12mim]Cl were, respectively, the least and the most toxic ILs at the transcriptional level. Also, it is reinforced that [Chol]Cl is not devoid of environmental hazardous potential. Unique gene expression signatures could also be identified for each IL.

Electrochemical Investigation of Curcumin-DNA Interaction by Using Hydroxyapatite Nanoparticles-Ionic Liquids Based Composite Electrodes.

Project description:Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HaP) and ionic liquid (IL) modified pencil graphite electrodes (PGEs) are newly developed in this assay. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and cyclic voltammetry (CV) were applied to examine the microscopic and electrochemical characterization of HaP and IL-modified biosensors. The interaction of curcumin with nucleic acids and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) samples was investigated by measuring the changes at the oxidation signals of both curcumin and guanine by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique. The optimization of curcumin concentration, DNA concentration, and the interaction time was performed. The interaction of curcumin with PCR samples was also investigated by gel electrophoresis.

Synthesis and properties of novel ammonium-based room-temperature gemini ionic liquids.

Project description:Ammonium-based room-temperature asymmetrical gemini ionic liquids, 1-trimethylammonium-3-(pyridinium)propane bisdicyanamide ([N111C3Py][DCA]2) and 1-trimethylammonium-3-(1-methylpiperidinium)propane bisdicyanamide ([N111C3MPi][DCA]2) were respectively synthesized and structurally characterized by 1H NMR and 13C NMR. Thermal stability of the gemini ionic liquids was determined by thermogravimetric analysis under a pure nitrogen atmosphere. Densities and viscosities of pure GILs and their binary mixtures with acetonitrile (MeCN) were investigated over the entire range of mole fractions at various temperatures, from 288.15 to 333.15 K, under atmospheric pressure. Moreover, the excess molar volumes (V E m) and the viscosity deviations (Δη) of the binary mixtures were evaluated and well fitted to the Redlich-Kister polynomial expression. The negative values of V E m and Δη result from strong self-association and interaction between the gemini ionic liquid molecules and MeCN. Results are discussed in terms of molecular interactions and structures.

Exploring the Gas-Permeation Properties of Proton-Conducting Membranes Based on Protic Imidazolium Ionic Liquids: Application in Natural Gas Processing.

Project description:This experimental study explores the potential of supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs) based on protic imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs) and randomly nanoporous polybenzimidazole (PBI) supports for CH₄/N₂ separation. In particular, three classes of SILMs have been prepared by the infiltration of porous PBI membranes with different protic moieties: 1-H-3-methylimidazolium bis (trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide; 1-H-3-vinylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide followed by in situ ultraviolet (UV) polymerization to poly[1-(3H-imidazolium)ethylene] bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide. The polymerization process has been monitored by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and the concentration of the protic entities in the SILMs has been evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Single gas permeability values of N₂ and CH₄ at 313 K, 333 K and 363 K were obtained from a series of experiments conducted in a batch gas permeance system. The results obtained were assessed in terms of the preferential cavity formation and favorable solvation of methane in the apolar domains of the protic ionic network. The most attractive behavior exhibited poly[1-(3H-imidazolium)ethylene]bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide polymeric ionic liquid (PIL) cross-linked with 1% divinylbenzene supported membranes, showing stable performance when increasing the upstream pressure. The CH₄/N₂ permselectivity value of 2.1 with CH₄ permeability of 156 Barrer at 363 K suggests that the transport mechanism of the as-prepared SILMs is solubility-dominated.

Influence of Ionic Liquids on the Selectivity of Ion Exchange-Based Polymer Membrane Sensing Layers.

Project description:The applicability of ion exchange membranes is mainly defined by their permselectivity towards specific ions. For instance, the needed selectivity can be sought by modifying some of the components required for the preparation of such membranes. In this study, a new class of materials -trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium based ionic liquids (ILs) were used to modify the properties of ion exchange membranes. We determined selectivity coefficients for iodide as model ion utilizing six phosphonium-based ILs and compared the selectivity with two classical plasticizers. The dielectric properties of membranes plasticized with ionic liquids and their response characteristics towards ten different anions were investigated using potentiometric and impedance measurements. In this large set of data, deviations of obtained selectivity coefficients from the well-established Hofmeister series were observed on many occasions thus indicating a multitude of applications for these ion-exchanging systems.

Physicochemical characterizations of novel dicyanamide-based ionic liquids applied as electrolytes for supercapacitors.

Project description:Novel ionic liquids (ILs), containing a dicyanamide anion (DCA-), are synthesized and applied as suitable electrolytes for electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs). The prepared ILs are either composed of triethyl-propargylammonium (N222pr +) or triethyl-butylammonium (N2224 +) cations paired with the DCA- anion. The structure of the cation influences its electrostatic interaction with the DCA- anion and highly impacts the physical and electrochemical properties of the as-prepared ILs. The geometry and the length of the alkyl chain of the propargyl group in N222pr + enhance the ionic conductivity of N222pr-DCA (11.68 mS cm-1) when compared to N2224-DCA (5.26 mS cm-1) at 298 K. It is demonstrated that the Vogel-Tammann-Fulcher model governs the variations of the transport properties investigated over the temperature range of 298-353 K. A maximum potential window of 3.29 V is obtained when N222pr-DCA is used as electrolyte in a graphene based symmetric EDLC system. Cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic measurements confirm that both electrolytes exhibit an ideal capacitive behavior. The highest specific energy of 55 W h kg-1 is exhibited in the presence of N2224-DCA at a current density of 2.5 A g-1.

Novel Aphid-Repellent Fiber Mats Based on Poly(lactic acid)-Containing Ionic Liquids.

Project description:To protect crops as well as human and animal health, the development of novel repellents based on biopolymers is critical for a growing world population. Here, novel aphid-repellent electrospun mats containing epoxidized ionic liquids (ILs) covalently bonded to the carboxyl or hydroxyl groups of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) were designed to produce nonwoven mats. First, di-, tri-, and tetra-epoxidized imidazolium ILs were synthesized and incorporated in different weight fractions (3, 5, and 10 wt %) into the PLA solution. Then, the effect of ILs' microstructure, thermal properties, mechanical performance, and hydrophobic behavior were investigated. It was found that the incorporation of ILs resulted in a reduction of the fiber diameters while the mechanical properties of the mats, i.e., the three-dimensional fibrous porous structure, were maintained. Finally, the effect of these three ILs against the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) was evaluated for the first time, showing an attractive effect for the diepoxidized IL and a repellent effect for the tri- and tetra-epoxidized ILs. By exploiting the chemical nature of ILs, an environmentally friendly strategy can be developed to limit the need for chemical pesticides and petroleum-based polymers.
