A study comprising the adsorption and frictional behaviour of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquids, [Cnmim][Cl] (with n = 10,12,14), deposited on gold surfaces at a fixed concentration of 0.07 M was carried out using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), a nanotribometer and an atomic-force microscope (AFM). The size of the alkyl side-chain of the cation and the corresponding adsorption and frictional results correlate quite well. AFM morphological images support the reasoning put forward for the observed trends. They also suggest that the alkyl chain length of the cation plays an important role in the definition of the structure of the adsorbed aggregates. The ratio between the working concentrations and the critical micelle concentration of the studied ionic liquids is also an important factor.
Adsorption, friction and morphological studies indicate that [Cnmim][Cl](n = 10,12,14) ionic liquids adsorbed readily at gold surfaces. The adsorbed mass decreases while the friction coefficient tends to increase with alkyl chain length. All adsorbed ILs show distinct morphologies.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slideResearch highlights
► Adsorption studies using quartz crystal microbalance (QCM-D) indicate that [Cnmim][Cl](n = 10,12,14) ionic liquids adsorbed readily at gold surfaces.
► Adsorbed mass decreases and friction coefficient tends to increase with the alkyl chain length of IL on gold surface.
► All adsorbed ILs show distinct morphologies which depend on the ratio of working concentrations and cmc.
► The study aims to help on the design and control of the morphology of ionic liquids at solid surfaces.
