Influence of the intrinsic structure of RTIL on the morphology of as synthesized CdSe nanoparticles is demonstrated. IL plays multiple roles,i.e.as a solvent, stabilizer and shape directing template.

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) can be efficiently dispersed in the imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs), at relatively high concentration, with their intrinsic structure and properties retained. Due to the hygroscopicity of the ILs, water bands may be introduced in the absorption spectra of IL-dispersed SWNTs and cause problems in spectral deconvolution and further analysis. In order to remove this influence, a quantitative characterization of the trace water in [BMIM]+[PF6]− and [BMIM]+[BF4]− was carried out by means of UV–vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy. A simple yet effective method involving spectral subtraction of the water bands was utilized, and almost no difference was found between the spectra of the dry IL-dispersed SWNT samples treated under vacuum for 10 hours and the spectra of the untreated samples with subtraction of the pure water spectrum. This result makes it more convenient to characterize SWNTs with absorption spectra in the IL-dispersion system, even in the presence of trace amount of water.

The novel synthesis of task-specific ionic liquids (TSILs) introducing piperazine substructures was described. Piperazine functional groups were easily grafted onto an imidazolium cationic derivative via a simple four-step process starting from available materials such as imidazole, ethylene glycol, and 1-butylamine or 3-dimethylaminopropylamine. Effects of pH, temperature, and structure of functional groups on the performance of liquid–liquid extraction of Cu2+, Ni2+, and Co2+ from water were investigated. It was found that TSILs were efficient for removal of these metal ions in mild acid solutions. The TSIL with an extra nitrogen atom showed a higher capability to separate metal ions, especially for Cu2+. This may be ascribed to the intrinsic structure of the functional groups – the more coordination sites, the higher the affinity for the metal ions. Furthermore, the thermodynamics indicated that the extraction process was exothermic and spontaneous in nature.

There has been sustained interest over the last few years into both the intrinsic (primary and secondary) structure of grain boundaries and the extrinsic structure e.g. the interaction of matrix dislocations with the boundary. Most of the investigations carried out by electron microscopy have involved only the use of information contained in the transmitted image (bright field, dark field, weak beam etc.). Whilst these imaging modes are appropriate to the cases of relatively coarse intrinsic or extrinsic grain boundary dislocation structures, it is apparent that in principle (and indeed in practice, e.g. (1)-(3)) the diffraction patterns from the boundary can give extra independent information about the fine scale periodic intrinsic structure of the boundary.In this paper I shall describe one investigation into each type of structure using the appropriate method of obtaining the necessary information which has been carried out recently at Tribophysics.
