Switchable long-range double layer force observed in a protic ionic liquid

A repulsive double layer force has been measured for ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) at 373 K and 393 K, which is absent at lower temperatures. This temperature-tuneable change in behaviour is the opposite of recent observations which challenge traditional views of ionicity. This finding thus widens the...

Description
Summary:A repulsive double layer force has been measured for ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) at 373 K and 393 K, which is absent at lower temperatures. This temperature-tuneable change in behaviour is the opposite of recent observations which challenge traditional views of ionicity. This finding thus widens the debate about the very nature of ionic liquids.
