NMR Relaxation Studies of Microdynamics in Chloroaluminate Melts

Abstract

Room temperature molten salts consisting of mixtures of AlCl3 and l-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (MEICl), are of interest as aprotic solvents for studying a wide range of both organic and inorganic compounds. These chloroaluminate molten salts possess considerable potential as battery electrolytes and various types of electrochemical agents. The use of NMR relaxation methods provides useful information about the dynamics and structure of various chemical systems and chloroaluminate systems in particular. In a previous work, 13C NMR relaxation measurements were used to investigate the motion and interactions of the MEI cation.
