Abstract

O liquid binary mixtures, revealing the possibility of obtaining new eutectic mixtures upon the simple addition of water to DESs while keeping the DES contents at a certain pseudo-concentrated range. This finding will pave the way to novel applications, especially in those fields in which the preparation of high-tech products via low-cost processes is critical. We hope that this featured article will encourage scientists to explore the promising perspectives offered by DESs and aqueous dilutions thereof.
