Used as an ionic liquid in various industrial and laboratory applications due to its low volatility and high thermal stability. Commonly employed as a solvent in organic synthesis and catalysis, where it enhances reaction efficiency and selectivity. Also utilized in separation processes, such as extraction of metals or removal of sulfur compounds from fuels. Its surfactant-like structure makes it effective in modifying surface properties and stabilizing emulsions. Applied in electrochemistry for battery systems and electrodeposition due to its good ionic conductivity. Investigated for use in biocatalysis and enzyme stabilization, where it helps maintain protein structure under non-aqueous conditions.
