However, classic gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) with volatile plasticizers show poor inherent safety, despite their higher ionic conductivities vs. dry PE systems, which largely hampers the practical deployment of GPE-based LMBs. Herein, we report the electrochemical performances of a highly-concentrated bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (FSI)-based ternary gel polymer electrolyte (TGPE) comprising a plasticized polymerized ionic liquid as polymer scaffold. The as-prepared FSI-TGPEs show high lithium-ion conductivities at room temperature, wide electrochemical stability both at oxidative and reductive potentials, and superior compatibility with lithium metal electrode. These unique properties of FSI-TGPE enable stable Li plating and stripping processes, as well as high discharge capacity of a Li||Li(Ni0.6Mn0.2Co0.2)O2 cell at ambient temperatures. The present work offers not only safe and highly conductive PEs but also a better understanding on the determining role of FSI− anions in high-energy LMBs.
