ILMAT2023 | Porto

ILMAT conference series The International Conferences on Ionic Liquid-Based Materials (ILMAT) are well-established European conferences that focus on the properties and applications of ionic liquids. Previous conferences were successfully held in Vienna (2011), Montpellier (2013), Berlin (2015), Santiago de Compostela (2017), Paris (2019), and Alsace (2021). This European conference is dedicated to the study of ionic fluids, with a strong emphasis on ionic liquids. It comprehensively covers a wide range of topics, including the physicochemical and biological properties of these substances, as well as their potential applications. In recent years, the remarkable potential applications of ionic liquids have captured the interest of researchers from various multidisciplinary fields such as chemistry, physics, biology, and materials engineering.
