A systematic visual methodology to design ionic liquids and ionic liquid mixtures: Green solvent alternative for carbon capture
( Elsevier Ltd , 2016 , Article)Ionic liquids (ILs) have gained great interest recently to substitute volatile organic compounds (VOCs), since their properties can be tuned to match certain targets and applications. Further to this, another possibility ... -
Corrosion Behavior of Carbon Steel in CO2 Saturated Amine and Imidazolium-, Ammonium-, and Phosphonium-Based Ionic Liquid Solutions
( American Chemical Society , 2016 , Article)This work presents a recent investigation on corrosion behavior of carbon steel amine and ionic liquid based carbon dioxide absorbents. The first class focused on classical amine solutions: monoethanolamine (MEA), ... -
Electrodeposition of liquid metals from molten salts
( Electrochemical Society Inc. , 2014 , Conference Paper)Many important metals are being produced by electrolysis in molten salts (aluminium, sodium, rare earths and other reactive metals). Also industrial electrorefining of aluminium takes place in a molten salt electrolyte. ... -
Experimental and DFT Approach on the Determination of Natural Gas Hydrate Equilibrium with the Use of Excess N2 and Choline Chloride Ionic Liquid as an Inhibitor
( American Chemical Society , 2016 , Article)This work presents the characterization of hydrate-forming conditions of a Qatari natural gas-type mixture, QNG-S1, obtained using two different experimental methods, namely, a benchtop reactor and a gas hydrate autoclave. ... -
Gas Hydrate Prevention and Flow Assurance by Using Mixtures of Ionic Liquids and Synergent Compounds: Combined Kinetics and Thermodynamic Approach
( American Chemical Society , 2016 , Article)The thermodynamic and kinetic hydrates inhibition effects of addition of synergents poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and vinyl caprolactum (VCAP) with ionic liquids 1-methyl-1-propylpyrrolidinium chloride [PMPy][Cl] and ... -
Nematic opto-mechanical actuators for the fabrication of refreshable tactile systems
(2013 , Conference Paper)Nematic elastomers are promising materials for the fabrication of actuators due to their ability to reversibly contract and expand during phase transitions triggered by external stimuli. We present a refreshable tactile ... -
Online monitoring of the solvent and absorbed acid gas concentration in a CO2 capture process using monoethanolamine
( American Chemical Society , 2014 , Article)A method has been developed for online liquid analysis of the amine and absorbed CO2 concentrations in a postcombustion capture process using monoethanolamine (MEA) as a solvent. Online monitoring of the dynamic behavior ... -
Thermal conductivity and latent heat thermal energy storage properties of LDPE/wax as a shape-stabilized composite phase change material
(2014 , Article)Phase change material (PCM) composites based on low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with paraffin waxes were investigated in this study. The composites were prepared using a meltmixing method with a Brabender-Plastograph. The ... -
Viscous origin of ionic liquids at the molecular level: A quantum chemical insight
( Elsevier , 2014 , Article)The viscosity of selected families of ionic liquids has been assessed at the molecular level as a function of the intermolecular interactions using Density Functional Theory together with Atoms-in-a-Molecule and Natural ...
