Their unique properties, including negligible vapor pressure, high thermal stability, and tunable structural characteristics, make them highly versatile. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of ILs by systematically exploring their physicochemical properties, such as density, viscosity, thermal stability, and phase behavior under various conditions. The impact of water on IL behavior, IL–IL mixtures, and structure–property relationships is critically examined. Technological applications, particularly in gas capture, energy storage, and drug delivery, are evaluated, alongside a techno-economic analysis discussing market dynamics, commercialization barriers, and lifecycle considerations. Environmental sustainability, biodegradability, and regulatory aspects are also assessed. By bridging fundamental understanding with application-driven insights, this review identifies pathways for advancing ILs as sustainable enablers of clean technologies. 0887-0624 https://hdl.handle.net/10259/12026 10.1021/ACS.ENERGYFUELS.5C01280 1520-5029 Cations Anions Solvents Transition temperature Salts Ionic liquids as multidimensional materials: A review from fundamentals to applications
