Reconfigurable Poly(Ionic Liquid) Hydrogel Electrolytes for Ultrawide‐Temperature, Damage‐Tolerant Hybrid Supercapacitors

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A hydroxyl‐functionalized poly(ionic liquid) hydrogel electrolyte is synthesized by one‐step γ‐radiation polymerization and integrated in situ into flexible hybrid supercapacitors. The dynamic network enables toughness, adhesion, and self‐healing, while the hybrid salt strategy enables stable ion transport from −70 to 60 °C, allowing durable ...
