They then combined a room -
temperature ionic liquid and lithium salt and mixed them into the clay in an oxygen - free glove box.
This discovery, like earlier work on supercapacitors by the lab, depends on the malleable qualities of bentonite clay and room -
temperature ionic liquids that serve as both a separator and an electrolyte system and provide a conductive path between a battery's anode and cathode.
