Application of ionic liquids to the electrodeposition of metals

Abbott, Andrew P., McKenzie, Katy J.·2006·Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Abstract

The electrodeposition of most of technologically important metals has been shown to be possible from a wide range of room temperature molten salts, more commonly known today as 'ionic liquids'. These liquids are currently under intense scrutiny for a wide variety of applications some of which have already been commercialized. Despite the fact that electrodeposition was the first application studied in these liquids no metal deposition processes have as yet been developed to an industrial scale. This review addresses the practical and theoretical aspects that need to be considered when choosing ionic liquids for metal deposition. It details the current understanding of the physical and chemical properties of these interesting fluids and highlights the areas that need to be considered to develop practical electroplating systems. The effect of composition and temperature on viscosity and conductivity are discussed together with the fundamental approaches required to synthesise new liquids.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
