The ILs was characterized using NMR, elemental analysis (CHNS) and FTIR. The physicochemical properties for these ILs, such as viscosity, density, refractive index, surface tension and thermal stability were analysed in a wide temperature window. Moreover the effects of different anions on the physicochemical properties were studied as well. The density and surface tension values were further used to calculate other properties such as thermal expansion coefficient, surface enthalpy, surface entropy as well as the boiling point and critical temperature of the ILs. The thermal stability analyses were performed from (373.15�773.15) K. © 2016 Elsevier B.V. date: 2016 publisher: Elsevier B.V. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84981730239&doi=10.1016%2fj.molliq.2016.08.018&partnerID=40&md5=bbabe9541b02dea34a4bf6d7e9a43775 id_number: 10.1016/j.molliq.2016.08.018 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Molecular Liquids volume: 223 pagerange: 81-88 refereed: TRUE issn: 01677322 citation: Ullah, Z. and Bustam, M.A. and Man, Z. and Shah, S.N. and Khan, A.S. and Muhammad, N.
