COMPOUNDS THAT ARE LIQUID AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURE

摘要

Disclosed are ionic liquids that have a low melting point. Said liquids are provided in the form of compounds that are selected among the group comprising tetraalkyl ammonium salts, benzyl trialkyl ammonium salts, tetraalkyl phosphonium salts, and benzyl trialkyl phosphonium salts, provided that at last two alkyl groups represent aliphatic radicals with chain lengths ranging from 8 to 10 C atoms, and provided that not all alkyl radicals are identical.
