These ionic liquids were characterised using FTIR-ATR and NMR in order to identify the molecular structures of these compounds. The physical properties of these compounds, namely refractive index and thermal properties were measured at room temperature and are reported herein. ILs incorporating cetylpyridinium cations show higher thermal stability and refractive index values as compared to Aliquat ILs due to the effects of the aromatic ring on the cetylpyridinium cation as well as the longer alkyl chain on the anion of DOSS. © 2012 American Institute of Physics. date: 2012 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Wilfred, C.D. and Nair, G.D. and Ziyada, A.K.
