Complementary measurements of&nbsp;<strong>conductivity, viscosity, calorimetry, and Raman spectroscopy<\/strong>&nbsp;were used to connect molecular-scale ordering with macroscopic transport behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The results demonstrated that mesoscale structuring plays a key role in determining&nbsp;<strong>ion mobility and electrolyte stability<\/strong>, providing new understanding of how microscopic interactions govern macroscopic properties.
