Ionic liquids (ILs) are a class of salts that exist in the liquid state at or near room temperature. Composed entirely of ions, these liquids are known for their unique properties, including negligible vapor pressure, high thermal stability, and excellent solubility for a wide range of substances. The cations and anions in ionic liquids can be varied to tune their properties for specific applications, making them highly versatile. ILs are used in green chemistry as solvents for chemical reactions, in electrochemistry for batteries and supercapacitors, and in separation processes due to their ability to dissolve both organic and inorganic materials. Their low volatility and recyclability contribute to their appeal as environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional organic solvents. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practical applications of ionic liquids. The various studies that are constantly contributing towards advancing technologies and evolution of this field are examined here in detail. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
