Mixtures of ionic liquids formed by blending a common 1-methyl-3-butylimidazolium [Bmim] cation with the dicarboxylic amino acid anions viz., aspartic acid [Asp], asparagine [Asn], glutamic acid [Glu], and glutamine [Gln], have been investigated by employing dispersion corrected density functional theory.

The thermal stability and decomposition kinetics analysis of 1-alkyl-2,3-dimethylimidazole nitrate ionic liquids with different alkyl chains (ethyl, butyl, hexyl, octyl and decyl) were investigated by using isothermal and nonisothermal thermogravimetric analysis combined with thermoanalytical kinetics calculations (Kissinger, Friedman and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Isothermal experiments were performed in a nitrogen atmosphere at 240, 250, 260 and 270 °C. In addition, the nonisothermal experiments were carried out in nitrogen and air atmospheres from 30 to 600 °C with heating rates of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 °C/min. The results of two heating modes, three activation energy calculations and density functional theory calculations consistently showed that the thermal stability of 1-alkyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium nitrate ionic liquids decreases with the increasing length of the alkyl chain of the substituent on the cation, and then the thermal hazard increases. This study could provide some guidance for the safety design and use of imidazolium nitrate ionic liquids for engineering.

In the present work, the adsorption of glycine amino acid and its zwitterionic form onto three different hexagonal sheets, namely graphene, boron-nitride (h-BN) and silicon carbide (h-SiC), has been investigated within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
