SUPRAMOLECULAR FLUID
ES2797556B2
The present invention relates to a supramolecular fluid for use in redox reactions. More specifically, the fluid of the invention comprises a quaternary ammonium salt. The invention also relates to compositions of the quaternary ammonium salt and to the uses of same.
The present invention provides a new electrolyte that is formed by a supramolecular fluid with the physical-chemical characteristics that are detailed herein and that characterize said fluid. A first aspect of the invention is directed to a stable electrolyte in atmospheric conditions characterized in that it comprises a quaternary ammonium halide or a Quaternary phosphonium halide, with a concentration equal to or greater than 0.6 m in an aqueous solution. In a particular embodiment, the concentration of the quaternary ammonium halide or a quaternary phosphonium halide is equal to or greater than 2 m. In another particular embodiment, the concentration of the quaternary ammonium halide or a quaternary phosphonium halide is between 0.6m and 30m.
