Abstrakt: Complicated phase transitions were observed in a single-component 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium nitrate ([C 10 mim][NO 3 ]) ionic liquid (IL) using Raman spectroscopy and synchrotron small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SWAXS). Time-resolved synchrotron SWAXS could distinguish the phase transitions depending upon the cooling rate. Low- Q peaks representing a few kinds of layered structures were decomposed. Multiphase coexistence was observed in [C 10 mim][NO 3 ] at specific cooling rates (8-9 K/min). Ionic liquid crystals (ILCs), hybrid-layered crystals, and hexagonal close-packed structures coexisted simultaneously. At the cooling rate region, the reentrant phase transition of the ILC phase upon heating was observed.
