Abstract
The high degree of organisation in the fluid phase of room-temperature ionic liquids has major consequences on their macroscopic properties, namely on their behaviour as solvents. This nanoscale self-organisation is the result of an interplay between two types of interaction in the liquid phase – Coulomb and van der Waals – that eventually leads to the formation of medium-range structures and the recognition of some ionic liquids as composed of a high-charge density, cohesive network permeated by low-charge density regions.
In this chapter, the structure of the ionic liquids will be explored and some of their consequences to the properties of ionic liquids analyzed.

1This simple “red and green” color scheme was reused in several publications, including some by other authors. It had been used in previous Monte Carlo simulation studies involving nano-segregated binary mixtures of Lennard-Jones atom, where the colors had been chosen just by numerical order in the RGB system: red is 001 (1 in binary), green is 010 (2 in binary), and they are followed by yellow (011) and blue (100). The fact that red and green are the colors of the Portuguese flag (the nationality of the authors) is merely a coincidence.
