Abstract
This work shows that novel ambient temperature ionic liquids can be produced from substituted quaternary ammonium salts and some metal salts. The ionic liquids are sufficiently conducting to allow electrochemical investigations to be carried out. Data on the electrochemical reduction of the metal ions is presented together with information on the deposit morphology of Zn, and Zn/Sn and Zn/Co alloys. The low cost and low toxicity of the ionic liquids makes possible their use for large-scale metal finishing applications.Keywords
