2022 Ionic Liquids Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar
Abstract:
Ionic Liquids are materials of almost boundless possibilities. Their countless variations and accessible properties enable them to be applied to virtually any area of science and technology. Building on the foundational work funded primarily by the Department of Defense, research into ionic liquids has seen expansive growth over the past 25 years. Applications of these remarkable materials are being realized in areas as diverse as electrochemical power, renewable fuels and chemicals, advanced materials, sensors, biomaterial processing, biotechnology, catalysis, pharmaceuticals, and separations. The goal of this Gordon Research Conferences, Inc. (GRC) is to expand the view of the participants on what ionic liquids are and how moving beyond self-imposed boundaries can enhance the potential of these remarkable materials. Presentations at this GRC will highlight many key interest areas of ionic liquids research and will foster thought provoking and stimulating discussions. In addition, selected talks will seek to expand beyond the conventional boundaries of ionic liquids. Amplifying this will be lively poster sessions and social events that will provide ample opportunities for interaction and dialog.
