Ionic Liquids A New Class Of Products In Green Chemistry With High Potential And Fast Growing Market

May 29, 2008 - PRLog -- Ionic liquids a new class of products in green chemistry with high potential and fast growing market

Ionic liquids on the way to a multi billion dollar market worldwide. Ionic liquids are green, environmentally friendly solvents, and most importantly, a very wide range of ionic liquids is available to substitut and for new applications.

Ionic liquids are expanding dramatically in popularity , and the first worldwide market study is made by helmut kaiser consultancy, a worldwide leader in technology research

Strong market increase for Ionic liquids since some years and more companies
worldwide on the way to a multi billion dollar market with some country and
company focus. Ionic liquids are recognised for their unique properties in the last
years. Ionic liquids have the potential for revolutionary changes to synthesis routes
and unit operations in the chemical industry .Many Experts see IL`s as green
chemistry, it is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or
eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances. IL`s are not flammable;
they release no fumes; and they can make chemical reactions faster, clean, safe
and cheaper. They increase yield – and profit - for manufacturers, reduce the
amount of malodorous, toxic waste in the environment, reduce energy and make
the workplace much safer. Ionic liquids could provide a key to making the
components in an environmentally friendly way. Essentially salts that are liquid at
room temperature, their non-detectable vapour pressures and unique solvent
properties provide the possibility for clean manufacturing.

There is rapidly growing worldwide scientific and commercial interest in ionic liquids, demonstrated by increasing applications and markets worldwide. The number of potential ionic liquids and liquid mixtures (estimated trillion) gives research scientists a vast pool of candidates for synthesis. It is possible today to design an ionic liquid with specific properties to improve existing reaction and separation systems, or create entirely new routes and processes for chemical products. Commercialization is increasing the last years as more and more chemical companies enter the markets and offer products. The applications are in every industry and branch/sector.

This study analyze the state of sciences, products, applications, companies and market developments to 2030, it is the first and only study worldwide. There are 150 companies today working in the markets and sciences but there will be several thousands by 2030.
