Problems solved by technology

Among these methods, metal ion modification has complicated steps and high cost, and is limited to use in the laboratory; heat activation treatment has low operating flexibility, oxidation reaction is not easy to control, and excessive oxidation reduces the stability and service life of electrode materials; acid activation The effect of the treatment is not very obvious; while the electrochemical treatment method is a liquid-phase chemical process, most of which are expensive and time-consuming, and the preparation, storage, post-processing and operation of the treatment solution have a greater risk of environmental pollution
And all the above-mentioned methods are to uniformly treat the carbon felt as a whole. Due to the carbon oxidation of the surface layer of the treated carbon felt, it is bound to increase its contact resistance with the bipolar plate, which will reduce the efficiency of the assembled battery stack.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for modifying a carbon porous material, characterized in that by applying a high pressure pulse voltage on two opposite plate electrodes and inserting an electrolyte plate which has a high dielectric constant and a compact structure and has an area that is slightly larger than the size of the plate electrodes between the two opposite plate electrodes, a uniform discharge plasma reaction zone is formed between the plate electrodes; mixed gasses containing oxygen are uniformly mixed at normal temperatures and pressures, the mixed gasses are subject to ionization activation by the plasma reaction zone to generate a plurality of oxygen-containing plasma gasses, after gas distribution is carried out, the gasses vertically flow through a pre-cleaned carbon porous material in the thickness direction to react to obtain the activated carbon porous material. The method has the advantages of environmental protection, low cost, mild treatment conditions, easy control of function group quantity, and outstanding improvement of the activity of the electrode material, and the method can realize gradient treatment, can reduce the area resistance of the contacting surface of the porous material and the bipolar plate, so as to increase the battery efficiency. The method uses devices, thus the method is easy for industrialized operation.
