[a] 1.0 wt % M‐NP/[BMIm][BF4], M‐NP/[BMIm][Tos], or M‐NP/PC dispersion obtained by microwave irradiation with 50 W for 10 min (40 min for PC) at 240 °C. [b] Average diameter (Ø) and standard deviation (σ). See the Experimental Section for TEM measurement conditions. [c] From the Scherrer equation, Scherrer‐factor: 0.95.53 [d] No particles were obtainable. [e] No precipitation possible.
