Densities, dynamic viscosities, refractive indices, and surface tensions have been measured for each liquid as a function of temperature at atmospheric pressure and fitted using simple empirical correlation functions. Consistent with related imidazolium-based ionic liquids, an increase in the carbon side-chain length of the imidazolium cation was found to decrease the density and surface tension but increase the viscosity and refractive index. Cytotoxicities of the present liquids were found to decrease with increasing carbon side chain length and were broadly similar to those of other ionic liquids. © 2011 American Chemical Society. date: 2011 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-80955164051&doi=10.1021%2fje200589f&partnerID=40&md5=6467f230478d213d0d4f7520984a6e6c id_number: 10.1021/je200589f full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Chemical and Engineering Data volume: 56 number: 11 pagerange: 4188-4193 refereed: TRUE issn: 00219568 citation: Ismail Hossain, M. and Babaa, M.-R. and El-Harbawi, M. and Man, Z. and Hefter, G. and Yin, C.-Y.
