Composite electrolyte comprising methylsisesquioxane (MSQ) filler and 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium-tetrafluoroborate (BMImBF4) ionic liquid (IL) in poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) matrix had been prepared. The polymer matrix was formed by free radical polymerization of HEMA macromer, and MSQ was produced in situ from methyl-trimethoxysilane by the sol-gel method. Infrared spectroscopy and dynamic mechanical analysis were employed to give insight into the interactions among the methylsisesquioxane filler, BMImBF4 and the PHEMA polymer matrix. The PHEMA-IL-MSQ hybrids and the PHEMA-IL electrolyte without MSQ were investigated regarding their ionic conductivity and thermal and electrochemical properties. BMImBF4 increased the thermal stability of the polymer and provided the ion conductivity; MSQ filler as the additive increased the mechanical strength of the polymer and provided the ion conductive pathway. The electrolyte with MSQ at the 10Â wt% showed the highest ionic conductivity of 5Ã10â4Â SÂ cmâ1 which was five times higher than that of the electrolyte without MSQ, and the electrochemical window was up to 3.6Â V.
