Clusterization process of water molecules called “water pockets” in the imidazolium-based room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) 1‑butyl‑3‑methylimidazolium nitrate ([C4mim][NO3]) was investigated using Raman spectroscopy. Changes of Raman spectra were observed in four different spectral regions when...
