Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing an active graphite felt electrode by electrolysis. Using graphite felt as a base material, oxygen functional groups and nitrogen functional groups are introduced into the graphite felt by means of constant voltage electrolysis in an ammonium salt solution to obtain an iron-chromium flow battery. Active graphite felt positive and negative electrode materials: prepare 0.5‑5mol / L ammonium salt solution; impregnate graphite felt into the ammonium salt solution; In the salt solution, apply a constant voltage of 0.5-5.0V to electrolyze the ammonium salt solution, and dry it at 60-80°C. The advantages are: simple and fast operation, low price, and low requirements on the preparation environment, which reduces the preparation cost of the flow battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of liquid flow batteries, in particular to a method for preparing active graphite felt electrodes by electrolysis. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, people's demand for energy is increasing, especially the demand for electricity, which leads to an increase in coal consumption and a sharp rise in sulfur dioxide emissions, of which power plants and industrial boilers account for the majority . In order to avoid the continued deterioration of environmental pollution, it is necessary to research and develop new energy sources such as wind energy and solar energy to generate electricity, which promotes the development of secondary batteries. Redox flow batteries have the advantages of fast start-up speed, large energy storage capacity, high energy efficiency, safety and reliability, green and pollution-free, and are one of the best choices for energy storage batter...
