Special issue：Deep Eutectic Solvents as Sustainable Solvents: Properties, Synthesis to Applications
Special Issue Description
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are a very promising group of environmentally friendly solvents that possess a diverse range of characteristics, ranging from being hydrophobic to hydrophilic. DES with hydrophobic to hydrophilic properties have diverse applications in several industries such as green chemistry, pharmacology, biotechnology, materials science, and more. These solvents are efficient for facilitating chemical reactions, extracting substances, conducting electricity, and dissolving different molecules. In green chemistry, DES offer opportunities for efficient and environmentally friendly processes, such as catalysis, biomass pre-treatment, and solvent recycling. In pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, DES provide avenues for drug formulation, synthesis, and separation processes. Moreover, DES exhibit potential in materials science applications, including nanoparticle synthesis, polymer processing, and surface modification. Therefore, the discussion of DESs offers a platform for comprehensive exploration of their potential advantages, challenges and future trajectories that facilitates knowledge exchange among academics and researchers contributing to the development of greener and more sustainable solutions.
