Used as an ionic liquid in electrochemical applications due to its high ionic conductivity and thermal stability. Commonly employed in batteries and fuel cells as a component of electrolytes, where it helps improve ion transport and device efficiency. Its hydrophobic nature makes it suitable for reactions involving water-sensitive compounds. Also used as a solvent or catalyst support in organic synthesis, especially in reactions requiring non-aqueous polar environments. Applied in separation processes, such as extraction of metals or removal of sulfur from fuels, thanks to its ability to selectively dissolve certain compounds. Its low volatility enhances safety in high-temperature operations.
