Abstract
As the high-profile new environmental material, ionic liquid is widely used in various fields with its extraordinary performance. It can be used as a substitute of traditional functional material and it also provides a theoretical basis for research and development of new material. This paper introduced the applications of ionic liquid in physical, chemical and biological areas as lubricant, plasticizer, variable focus lenses, optical response material, optical monitoring CO2 sensor, anti-static agent, energy storage battery, thermal material, magnetic material, intelligent material, gas absorption material, catalyst, refrigerant, antibacterial agent and herbicide, respectively. The ionic liquid materials usually provided better properties than traditional functional materials with wider application conditions and amazing effects. It is noteworthy that the ionic liquid is a green material for its environmental characteristics and economic benefits. At last, the further expectations of ionic liquid applied in material fields were put forward.

Carbohydrates conversion in biofuels and bioproducts
Biomass pretreatment, hydrolysis, and saccharification of carbohydrates, and sugars bioconversion in biofuels and bioproducts within a biorefinery framework. Carbohydrates derived from woody biomass, agricultural wastes, algae, sewage sludge, or any other lignocellulosic feedstock are included in this issue. Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
