The replacement of volatile organic solvents from a separation process is of utmost importance since the use of a large excess of these solvents is hazardous and creates ecological problem. The new method for metal ion extraction is by using task-specific ionic liquids such as ionic liquids which incorporate thiosalicylate functionality. This paper looks at producing a new cluster of ionic liquids which incorporates thiosalicylate with pyridinium cation. Its thermophysical properties such as density and viscosity in single and binary mixtures are studied. The ionic liquids' capability in metal removal processes is evaluated. © 2012 American Institute of Physics. date: 2012 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84874174943&doi=10.1063%2f1.4757463&partnerID=40&md5=804a8bf71958597098b6240050a7761e id_number: 10.1063/1.4757463 full_text_status: none publication: AIP Conference Proceedings volume: 1482 place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur pagerange: 193-196 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9780735410947 issn: 0094243X citation: Wilfred, C.D. and Mustafa, F.B. and Romeli, F.J.
