By studying the thermal properties of binary mixtures, it was found that their thermal behavior differs significantly from that of pure ionic liquids, while the molar heat capacities closely approximate the average value of the two pure ionic liquids.
Ionic liquids (ILs) are being widely studied due to their unique properties, which make them potential candidates for conventional solvents. To study whether binary mixtures of pure ionic liquids provide a viable alternative to pure ionic liquids for different applications, in this work, the thermal analysis and molar heat capacities of five equimolar binary mixtures of ionic liquids based on imidazolium, pyridinium, pyrrolidinium, and piperidinium cations with dicyanamide, trifluoromethanesulfonate, and bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide anions have been performed. Furthermore, two pure ionic liquids based on piperidinium cation have been thermally characterized and the heat capacity of one of them has been measured. The determination and evaluation of both the transition temperatures and the molar heat capacities was carried out using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was observed that the thermal behavior of the mixtures was completely different than the thermal behavior of the pure ionic liquids present, while the molar heat capacities of the binary mixtures were very similar to the value of the average of molar heat capacities of the two pure ionic liquids.
