Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the modification treatment methods of graphite felt mainly include: electrochemical oxidation (Electrochimica Acta89 (2013) 429-435), acid treatment (Electrochimica Acta 37 (1992) 2459-2465), noble metal modification (Electrochimica Acta 52 (2007) 6755 -6762), etc., but the effects of these processing methods are not ideal
Acid treatment will easily lead to overoxidation of the electrode material and reduce its stability and life
Electrochemical oxidation method, since sulfuric acid is mostly used as the electrolyte at present, it will also cause severe oxidation on the surface of graphite felt fibers, thereby reducing the stability and service life of the material
Noble metal modification requires multiple high-temperature sintering, the steps are complicated, it is not easy to realize, and the cost of materials is greatly increased, which is not suitable for large-scale applications

Embodiment 1

[0046] The preparation method of activated graphite felt of the present invention is as follows:

[0047] The graphite felt was soaked in acetone for 60 minutes at room temperature and ultrasonically cleaned, and then ultrasonically cleaned with deionized water to remove residual organic solvents, and dried to obtain degreasing treated graphite felt. Then soak it in an appropriate amount of 1.5mol / L KOH solution, and ultrasonically treat it for 1 hour to allow the KOH solution to fully soak the graphite felt. Heat at a constant temperature of 85°C to volatilize the solvent and precipitate KOH crystals, which are uniformly coated on the surface of the graphite felt. Put the KOH-coated graphite felt material in a high-temperature furnace, 2 Under the atmosphere protection, the temperature is raised to 900°C at 5°C / min, the temperature is kept constant for 60 minutes, and the temperature is lowered to room temperature at 10°C / min.
