Abstract

Abstract Cellulose ionogels gain considerable attention for their application in flexible electronic devices. However, achieving an optimal balance between their mechanical and electronic properties remains a challenge. Here, a high‐performance cellulose ionogel is reported through strengthening the hydrogen bond network and weakening electrostatic interactions within cellulose molecular framework. The resulting ionogels, under a single molecular network, exhibit impressive tensile strength of 3.5 MPa and ionic conductivity of 14.3 mS cm −1 . Additionally, they demonstrate a wide voltage window of up to 3.0 V and high thermal stability, withstanding temperatures exceeding 120 °C. Serving as all‐solid electrolytes, the ionogels contribute to the construction of integrated flexible energy storage devices, achieving a remarkable energy density of over 60 Wh kg⁻¹ and demonstrating significant cycle stability, with a capacitance retention rate exceeding 97% after 10 000 charge–discharge cycles. With the robust mechanical and electrical properties, the cellulose ionogel is well‐positioned to offer innovative insights for the next generation of flexible, integrated electronic devices.
