Abstract

The invention relates to the field of manufacturing of vanadium batteries and particularly relates to a bipolar plate for a vanadium battery and a preparation method of the bipolar plate, aiming at solving the problems in the prior art that high uniform degree of mixing of materials of the bipolar plate is hardly guaranteed, the resistance rate of a polymer-carbon black composite bipolar plate is too high, the surface resistance of the bipolar plate is increased by electrochemical corrosion. The preparation method of the bipolar plate for the vanadium battery comprises the following steps: immersing pretreated carbon fiber cloth into conductive glue and curing to obtain a base body, and carrying out hot-pressing compounding on the base body and a carbon material by a pressing machine to finally obtain the bipolar plate. According to the preparation method, the conductive glue is prepared from macromolecular resin with good high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance and metal powder; the selected carbon fiber cloth is pretreated firstly, and then immersed into the conductive glue and finally cured to serve as the base body, and the carbon material and the base body are compounded by hot pressing to prepare the high-conductivity, high-strength and corrosion-resisting bipolar plate. The bipolar plate provided by the invention has high conductivity; and the consistency between single vanadium battery pieces is improved after the compounding, and the mechanical strength is high so that the reliability of the vanadium battery is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of vanadium battery manufacturing, in particular to a bipolar plate for a vanadium battery and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Vanadium battery, the full name of vanadium ion redox flow battery, is a new type of green battery. The bipolar plate is one of the key components of the all-vanadium redox flow battery. It plays the role of connecting the positive and negative electrodes of different cells and conducting the internal circuit of the battery. It is required to have good electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, chemical oxidation resistance and electric resistance. Chemical corrosion performance. The optional materials mainly include metal bipolar plates, pure graphite bipolar plates and polymer-carbon composite bipolar plates. Due to the price and corrosion resistance of metal bipolar plates, they are rarely studied and used. Pure graphite bipolar plates are easily broken dur...
