Thermal stability analysis, experimental conductivity and pH of phosphonium-based deep eutectic solvents and their prediction by a new empirical equation
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are derived from two or more salts as the hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs) and hydrogen bond donors (HBDs). Because of many unique features, DESs can be a versatile alternative to ionic liquids and traditional solvents. In this work, DESs were prepared namely allyltriphen...

| Summary: | Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are derived from two or more salts as the hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs) and hydrogen bond donors (HBDs). Because of many unique features, DESs can be a versatile alternative to ionic liquids and traditional solvents. In this work, DESs were prepared namely allyltriphenylphosphonium bromide-diethylene glycol (ATPPB-DEG) and allyltriphenylphosphonium bromide-triethylene glycol (ATPPB-TEG) into three mole ratios 1:4, 1:10, and 1:16 salt to HBDs. The thermal stability was comprehensively analysed under the temperature range of (30�800) °C. The conductivity and pH values were determined within the temperature range of 293.15 K�343.15 K. The results revealed that the amount and type of HBDs have an effect on these properties. Moreover, the effect of temperature was studied on these properties. As the temperature increases, the conductivity values increase while the pH values decrease. Finally, a new empirical equation was applied to correlate the experimental conductivity and pH data. It was found that this equation is powerful and reliable to correlate these properties of DESs. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd |
