Heat Capacity of Room-Temperature Ionic Liquids: A Critical Review

Experimental data on heat capacity of room-temperature ionic liquids in the liquid state were compiled and critically evaluated. The compilation contains data for 102 aprotic ionic liquids from 63 literature references and covers the period of time from 1998 through the end of February 2010. Parameters of correlating equations for temperature dependence of the heat capacities were developed. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3463478]
