Development And Applications Of Ionic Liquids And Near-Infrared Multispectral Imaging Techniques, Irena Mejac Jul 2011

Development And Applications Of Ionic Liquids And Near-Infrared Multispectral Imaging Techniques, Irena Mejac

Dissertations (1934 -)

In this work, we explore novel analytical applications of Ionic Liquids and Near-infrared multispectral imaging microscopy.

Ionic liquids (ILs) belong to a group of organic salts that are liquid at room temperature and can be, due to their unique chemical and physical properties, successfully used for a variety of applications. The main goal of this study was to explore the synergistic use of ILs in chemical separations. Specifically, chiral ILs were used as novel chiral selectors for Capillary Electrophoresis and as solvents for stationary phase in Gas Chromatography. As chiral selectors IL provides baseline-separation as well as enantiomeric separation of …
