Abstract

A binary system of two ionic liquids, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium and trioctylmethylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([EMIM][NTf2 ] and [OMA][NTf2 ], respectively), with varying molar fractions, is introduced. It allows the dynamic viscosity to remain constant over a range of almost 60 K; this means that any activated process can be studied independent of the temperature dependence of viscosity itself. This principle is proven upon reinvestigation of electron self-exchange kinetics of tetrathiafulvalene by continuous-wave ESR line-broadening experiments. From these results, it is also confirmed that this process is totally diffusion controlled.
