Abstract
The densities, kinematic viscosities, and specific conductances of mix tures of the organic cosolvents acetonitrile, benzene, and dichloromet hane with the Lewis basic room-temperature chloroaluminate molten salt aluminum chloride + 1-methyl-3-ethylimidazolium chloride(AlCl3 + MeEt imCl) were determined at 25 degrees C. Cosolvents were added to melts containing 49.00 and 44.40 mol % (m/o) AlCl3. Polynomial equations wer e fitted to the results as a function of the mass fraction of the coso lvent. The addition of relatively small amounts of these cosolvents ca uses a significant decrease in viscosity and a large increase in the c onductivity of basic melts.
