Abstract
The primary aim of this study was to explain the antielectrostatic activity of a series of protic 3-(alkoxymethyl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium salicylate ionic liquids as a function of their surface properties. The surface tension and contact angle on chosen surfaces were measured and discussed. The results were investigated as a function of the alkyl chain length of the alkoxymethyl substituent in the imidazolium cation. Despite the complex structure of the ions, the estimated surface tension was correlated with the corresponding experimental results. It was found that the alkyl chain length has a significant impact on the surface properties and wetting abilities of salicylates.
