Application

1-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide or [EtOHmim][DCA] is an ionic liquid that can be used:
  • As a solvent in the study of absorption of ammonia.
  • As a polymerization initiator, which is known to accelerate the cure of cyanate ester resins.
  • In the thermodynamic study of the solubility of D-sorbitol, xylitol, and meso-erythritol in ionic liquids.
  • As a corrosion inhibitor of API 5L X52 steel in acidic conditions.
