the present investigation entails a procedure by which the surface tension and viscosity of liquids could be redicted.to this end, capillary experiments were performed for porous media by utilizing fifteen different liquids and powders. the time of capillary rise to a certain known height of each liquid in a particular powder was recorded. two artificial neural networks (anns) were designed and...

wood vinegar is the aqueous phase of the liquid produced during the slow pyrolysis of wood.it has the potential to be used as a pesticide against various weeds, insects and molluscs. due to divergentfeedstocks, pyrolysis processes and storing conditions, the chemical composition of wood vinegar variesbetween producers and time. the aim of our current study was to use the copse snail arianta arb...

bifunctional acidic ionic liquids, having both h-imidazolium and -so3h groups as cation moieties (h-bfails) and cf3so3- as anion, were synthesized in high yields. these h-bfails showed significant hydrophilic properties, lower acidity and higher thermal stability relative to common ionic liquids, due to their unique structures. the (propyl or butyl-3-sulfonic) imidazolium trifluoromethane sulfo...

in recent years there has been a great deal of attention paid by researchers in investigating ionic liquids (ils) mainly due to the tremendous potential that ionic liquids have in reaction and separation technology. sonic speed is an important thermodynamic property of ionic liquids (ils) and always chosen as a source to determine other properties. a database for the sonic speed of pure ils cre...

a simple and mild method for tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols is reported at room temperature using a catalytic amount of 3-methylimidazolinium hydrogensulfate([hmim]hso4) as a green, efficient and reusable catalyst. using solvent-free conditions, non-toxic and inexpensive materials, modest and clean work-up, short reaction times and high yields of the products are the advantages of this method.

n-(diphenylphosphino)triethyl- and tributylammonium salts are introduced as easily prepared, cheap and stable ionic liquids that act as the condensing agent and media for the efficient esterification of acids with alcohols and phenols. this class of ionic liquids is immiscible with the ester products and thus allows simple and easy separation of the desired products from the reaction mixture.

Pyridinium based ionic liquids derived from β-picoline and n-alkylbromides were synthesized by a simple procedure at ambient temperature and then characterized. These neutral ionic liquids were investigated for their dual role as the solvent and promoter for the selective synthesis of a series of N-monomethylanilines using dimethylcarbonate as the methylating agent. A solvent free gree...
