Ionic liquids

Ionic Liquids are a class of ionic materials that are liquids at temperatures below 100°C. These ionic liquids can be made from uncountable combinations of organic and non-organic cations and anions. These ionic liquids are conductive and some can have some solubility for solid compounds that are solid due to hydrogen bonding, such as cellulose. Cellulose can be solublized up to 20% in the ideal ionic liquid. Any water present in cellulose and ionic liqid must be eliminated for there to be solubility.
