Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have gained popularity in various applications due to their improved environmental sustainability and biodegradability. For the present study, several polyhydric alcohols, including ethylene glycol (EG), diethylene glycol (DEG), triethylene glycol (TEG), and glycerol (Gly), have been used as hydrogen bond donors (HBDs) and choline chloride (ChCl) as a hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) in a fixed molar ratio to form a homogenous and stable DES. Controlled water mixing into such neat DESs has always been thought to be a quick and efficient method to tune the chemical and thermodynamic properties of DESs.
