BASF Podcast: Ionic Liquids - Liquid Salts with many Talents
Ludwigshafen (ots) -
In this podcast you will learn how the unique characteristics of liquid salts make ionic liquids so interesting for industry.
Ionic liquids are molten salts that are also in a liquid form at room temperature. The unique characteristics of these liquid salts are the very thing that makes ionic liquids so interesting for industry and could soon revolutionize a whole range of areas where industrial applications are used: Like in the production of cellulose, for instance, in solar cells, or in the metal processing industry.
