The polymer electrolytes based on a polymerized ionic liquid (PIL) as polymer host and containing 1,2‐dimethyl‐3‐butylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (BMMIM‐TFSI) ionic liquid, lithium TFSI salt, and nanosilica are prepared. The PIL electrolyte presents a high ionic conductivity, and it is 1.07 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at 60°C, when the BMMIM‐TFSI content reaches 60% (the weight ratio of BMMIM‐TFSI/PIL). Furthermore, the electrolyte exhibits wide electrochemical stability window and good lithium stripping/plating performance. Preliminary battery tests show that Li/LiFePO 4 cells with the PIL electrolytes are capable to deliver above 146 mAh g −1 at 60°C with very good capacity retention. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.
