Abstract

By investigating the vapor pressure of the solvent and the affinity between ionic liquids (ILs) and the solvent, it is proposed that 1,3-dimethylimidazolium chloride ([Mmim]Cl) has the potential to be used as a novel absorbent species with the absorption cycle working fluid. Adopting a high-pressure reaction kettle, the method of gas–liquid phase reaction was used to synthesize [Mmim]Cl under the conditions of 348.15 K and 0.7 MPa. The densities of [Mmim]Cl aqueous solutions were measured for mass fractions in the range from 20% to 90% at 293.15 K, 298.15 K, 303.15 K, 308.15 K, 313.15 K, and 318.15 K with a digital vibrating-tube densimeter. The excess volume, the apparent molar volume, the partial molar volume, and the apparent molar expansibility of this system were investigated, and the influences of variations of the cation and anion on the density of several IL aqueous solutions are discussed.
