| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In liquid-liquid dissolution, the critical point of phase separation is determined by the temperature. When the solvent consists of multi-components, in contrast, the mole fractions in the solvent also take on the role of control parameter. In this study an ionic liquid dissolves into a binary solvent composed of ethanol and water. It is found in this system that, near the critical point, a hole is spontaneously created in the droplet of the ionic liquid. It is thought that the creation of the hole is initiated by a mutual interaction between the concentrations of the ionic liquid and the binary solvent via their affinity. The spatial inhomogeneity of the interfacial tension is induced through an amplification of fluctuation in the concentration due to an instability mechanism, and causes the Marangoni effect to create the hole.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
イオンのみから構成され、室温で液体状態をとるイオン液体は、物質の選択的な溶解性や高いイオン伝導率などの性質により、化学工学や電気化学の分野で幅広い応用が期待されている。特に近年、物質分離操作などの応用へ向けて水と疎水性イオン液体との相分離が注目されている。本研究では水溶媒にエタノールを添加することによってイオン液体の疎溶媒性を変化させ、相分離の臨界点を制御しながら臨界現象を観測している。これまでの相分離の理論は主に２成分系が対象であり、本研究で注目する３成分系相分離に特有の新規現象の解明は、イオン液体の物性研究および臨界現象の統計力学の両方面に新たな知見を与えると期待される。
