Revisiting the Physicochemical Properties and Applications of Deep Eutectic Solvents

Revisiting the Physicochemical Properties and Applications of Deep Eutectic Solvents Recently, deep eutectic solvent (DES) or ionic liquid (IL) analogues have been considered as the newest green solvent, demonstrating the potential to replace harsh volatile organic solvents. DESs are mainly a combination of two compounds: hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and hydrogen bond donor (HBD), which have the ability to interact through extensive hydrogen bonds. A thorough understanding of their physicochemi...
