Abstract

The invention relates to the field of battery manufacturing and energy source storage and particularly provides a preparation method of a thermally-reduced graphene oxide / nano carbon fiber composite electrode for a full-vanadium flow battery. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, preparing a spinning solution for an experiment; secondly, uniformly mixing graphite oxide powder and the spinning solution; stripping the graphite oxide powder into graphene oxide by using an ultrasonic manner; preparing a nano fiber membrane by adopting an electrostatic spinning method; and then pre-oxidizing the nano fiber membrane in the air and carbonizing in an inert atmosphere pipe type furnace to obtain the needed thermally-reduced graphene oxide / nano carbon fiber composite electrode. According to the full-vanadium flow battery composite electrode prepared by the method, the diameter of carbon fibers is a nano scale; and the carbon fibers are compounded with thermally-reduced graphene oxide and the roughness of the fibers is greatly increased, so that the specific surface area of the electrode is two orders of magnitudes higher than that of a traditionally-used electrode material. Meanwhile, the high-activity thermally-reduced graphene oxide is adopted so that the electrochemical activity of the electrode is improved.

Background technique [0002] The all-vanadium redox flow battery is a new type of secondary battery that utilizes the chemical changes in different valence states of vanadium ions to store energy. The electrochemical polarization is reduced, and its rated power and rated power can be designed separately. Instantaneous charging can be achieved by replacing the electrolyte, and 100% deep discharge will not damage the battery. Based on the above advantages, it can be widely used in wind energy, solar energy and other energy storage, power grid peak regulation, uninterruptible power supply, etc. [0003] At present, the electrode materials used in all-vanadium redox flow batteries are mainly carbon-based graphite felt or carbon f...
