Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of vanadium redox flow battery manufacturing, and is specifically a bipolar plate for an all-vanadium redox flow battery and a preparation process thereof. Background technique [0002] The all-vanadium flow battery is a new type of environmentally friendly energy storage battery. The bipolar plate material is one of the important components. It mainly plays the role of isolating the positive and negative electrolytes and serving as a current collector for the internal circuit of the battery. Traditional bipolar plate materials are mostly pure graphite plates and conductive plastic composite bipolar plates. Pure graphite plates have high conductivity but poor resistance to electrolyte corrosion and low mechanical strength. Corrosion of graphite plates affects battery efficiency and service life. Conductive plastic composite bipolar plates have good corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, but have poor electrica...
