Abstract
An ionogel includes an ionic liquid electrolyte (ILE) comprising an ionic liquid (e.g., 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (EMIM-FSI)) and a lithium salt (e.g., lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI)) dissolved in the ionic liquid; and a solid matrix material comprising hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) nanoplatelets mixed with the ionic liquid electrolyte in at least one solvent.
