Abstract

Low-viscosity ionic liquids (ILs) based on the anions [B(CN)(4)](-) (tetracyanoborate) and [C(CN)(3)](-) (tricyanomethanide) are currently discussed as alternative working fluids for various applications. The dynamic viscosity of such ILs carrying [1-alky1-MIM](+) (1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium) cations was investigated via determination of the translational particle diffusion coefficient by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The long-term stability of suspensions of different particles in the ILs, their particle diameters, and the influence of laser power on the measured particle diffusion coefficient for Semi-transparent ILs were studied. For temperatures from 283 to 353 K at atmospheric pressure, the dynamic viscosity of the four pure ILs forming stable suspensions was obtained with an uncertainty of less than 5% (k = 2) and agrees with literature. Absorption of CO2 at pressures up to 0.87 MPa induced a distinct decrease in the dynamic viscosity. Differences between the viscosities of the different systems can be explained by varying strength of molecular interactions.
