Introduction

Ionic liquid (IL), which is viewed as a kind of super green solvent, has broad application prospect in industrial production, and it is of great significance to study its condensed structures and properties. At present, most of these studies focus on the structure and properties of ILs under atmospheric pressure, and the studies on the structure and properties of ILs under high pressure are relatively few. Pressure, temperature, and composition are three independent physical parameters in any system. Pressure can change the atomic spacing and intermolecular interactions effectively without encountering major perturbations, and then affect the chemical bond, energy level or energy band structure, and finally change structure and properties of the material. Compared with pressure, temperature produces a simultaneous change in the thermal energy and the volume, so pressure is a factor that cannot be replaced by other means.

Based on previous studies on the crystallization and...
