An ionic liquid, ,,-trimethyl--propylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TMPA TFSI), was transformed from a liquid phase to another fluidic phase by application of the threshold magnetic field at constant temperature (). The magnetic-field-induced (MFI) phase transformation was detected by the electric potential generated between two Pt electrodes set to the bottom and upper parts in a TMPA TFSI liquid during sweep of the magnetic field (). The magnetic susceptibility and Verdet constant of TMPA TFSI also were slightly changed over 3 T. The MFI phase formation was almost completed within 3 h after TMPA TFSI liquid was exposed to a 6 T magnetic field, as demonstrated by the melting behavior of TMPA TFSI solid frozen instantaneously under 6 T. Multivariate analysis of the Raman spectra suggested that the MFI transformation should be associated with the conformational change of the transoid-to-cisoidlike species of TFSI ions. A - phase diagram of TMPA TFSI is proposed.

Supercapacitors with high energy and power densities have become highly desirable in practical applications. Ionic liquids (ILs) are considered as promising electrolytes of supercapacitors owing to their excellent electrochemical stability window (approx. 4-6 V) and good thermal stability.

The X-ray scattering patterns of the two ionic liquids, N-trimethyl-N-propylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TMPA-TFSI) and N-trimethyl-N-hexylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TMHA-TFSI), sharing a common anion and differing in the length of the alkyl chain of the cation, were measured at room temperature. Molecular dynamics calculations supported the interpretation of the data. The two force-field models, GAFF and DLPOLY 4, were adopted to simulate the scattering patterns.

A detailed investigation of the phase diagram of the mixtures of the two ionic liquids N-trimethyl-N-propylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (TMPA-TFSI) and N-trimethyl-N-hexylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (TMHA-TFSI) has been performed in the temperature range between 140 and 330 K by means of DSC and infrared spectroscopy measurements. In the low temperature crystalline states, a large concentration of the trans-TFSI conformer is present in TMPA-TFSI, while almost only cis-TFSI is retained in TMHA-TFSI. For the mixtures (TMPA-TFSI) (TMHA-TFSI), at concentrations close to the extremes, solid crystalline phases are still present and they show a strong predominance of the trans conformer of the TFSI ion for x < 15 or a large concentration of the cis conformer of TFSI for x > 85.

Absorbance spectra of two ionic liquids, the short alkyl chain N-trimethyl-N-propylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TMPA-TFSI) and the longer chain N-trimethyl-N-hexylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TMHA-TFSI) are reported as a function of pressure and temperature. The occurrence of various phase transitions is evidenced by the changes in the relative concentration of the cisoid and transoid conformers of their common TFSI anion. The infrared spectrum of TMPA-TFSI was measured at 300 K with an applied pressure varying over the 0-5 GPa range.
