Abstract
Highly exothermic polymerization reactions of monomers have been carried out in ionic liquids (ILs) by employing an accelerating-rate calorimeter (ARC) to assess the role of the IL. The results indicate that the IL acts as an ideal heat sink in controlling the potential for the reactions to reach thermal runaway as well as contributing to a significant pressure reduction (see the acrylonitrile (AN) example depicted).
