Research Abstract |
Ionic liquids consist entirely of ions and have attracted much attention because of their unique property. Here we have aimed at preparing novel functional materials that can reversibly change their shape or self-assembled structure in response to external stimuli, such as heat, light, and electric fields, by hybridization of ionic liquids with synthetic polymers. In summary, we accomplished to realize multi-stimuli responsive ion gels and block copolymers in ionic liquids, and novel hydrophobic polymer coated electrodes that can control its wettability toward ionic liquids by applying electric field between the electrode-ionic liquid interfaces.
