Thermodynamic Properties of Binary Mixtures of the Amino Acid Ionic Liquids [Bmim][Glu] or [Bmim][Gly] with Methanol at T=298.15 to 313.15 K

Abstract

Densities, viscosities and refractive indices were determined for two ionic liquid mixtures formed by the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium glutamic acid salt ([Bmim][Glu]) or the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium glycine acid salt ([Bmim][Gly]), respectively, with methanol over the mole fraction from 0.1 to 0.9 and at temperatures ranging from 298.15 K to 313.15 K at intervals of 5 K and at atmospheric pressure. Excess molar volumes, viscosity deviations and refractive index deviations have been calculated from the experimental data and fitted to a Redlich–Kister polynomial function. The results have been interpreted in terms of ion-dipole interactions, and structural factors of the ionic liquid and alcohol molecular liquids.
