Résumé |
We use molecular dynamics calculations to investigate the behavior of metal cations (Li, Na and Zn) within ionic liquids (ILs), specifically EMIM–TFSI, and their impact on key properties, particularly focusing on ion–ion correlations and their influence on diffusion and conductivity. The study explores the competition between metal cations and EMIM ions for binding to TFSI and analyzes ion pair dynamics, revealing that metal cation–TFSI pairs exhibit significantly longer lifetimes compared to TFSI–EMIM pairs. This competitive interaction and the increased stability of metal cation–TFSI pairs at higher concentrations leads to reduced ion exchange, resulting in decreased diffusion and conductivity. The observations underscore the importance of ion size and charge in determining their behavior regarding IL dynamics. Overall, this work provides valuable insights for designing ILs with customized properties, particularly in the context of optimizing conductivity and addressing energy storage challenges.
We explore Li, Na and Zn cations in EMIM-TFSI ionic liquids (IL) via Molecular Dynamics simulations, analyzing individual ion diffusion coefficients and pair lifetimes, showing how metal cation size and charge determine the IL dynamic behavior. |
