LI and molecular solvents; LI mixtures
Ionic Liquids, Stakes and Challenges, from Research to Industry

When dealing with mixtures of any two solvents, the most important question is: are the properties of the mixture different from the average of the properties of each of the components in the mixture? This is the angle from which we shall address the subject in this section. As the number of LIs is already a limitation for an exhaustive presentation of the properties of these pure solvents, the same applies to the properties of mixtures, so we will only present a very limited selection of results.

The value of a property of a mixture calculated as the average of the values of the two pure components is usually described as "ideal", and it is usually the deviation from this ideal value that is examined, as a function, for example,...
