The application relates to the field of electrodes of a
vanadium redox flow battery, and discloses a modification method of high-catalytic-activity
carbon felt, which comprises the following steps: firstly, a precursor is prepared by reacting a
cobalt-iron salt, 2-methyl
imidazole and
sodium hydroxide, and a
cobalt-iron bimetallic MOF derivative is obtained by calcining at 300 DEG C to 350 DEG C; then, the derivative is prepared into a dispersion liquid, and
active components are made to deeply enter the internal pores of
polyacrylonitrile-based
carbon felt by vacuum impregnation; finally, hydrothermal recrystallization treatment is carried out at 150 DEG C to 180 DEG C, so that
dehydration condensation of the modified layer and the substrate occurs to form stable C-O-M chemical bonds. By utilizing the bimetallic synergistic effect and the interface chemical anchoring mechanism, the application systematically solves the bottlenecks of low
intrinsic activity, poor wettability and easy falling-off of the catalytic components of the
carbon felt. After modification, the static
contact angle of the carbon felt is reduced, the immersion weight increase rate is improved, the battery concentration difference polarization is reduced, and the cycle stability of the
electrode under long-term
electrolyte flushing is ensured.
