Abstract

The invention relates to an application of a porous membrane in a neutral system zinc-iron flow battery. The porous membrane is a porous conductive membrane which is prepared from more than one or two organic polymer resins as a raw material through a phase inversion method, wherein the membrane aperture size of the porous conductive membrane is 0.1-100nm; and the porosity is 5%-70%. Compared with original other ion exchange membranes, the porous conductive membrane has relatively high ionic selectivity, can effectively inhibit the migration problem of an electrolyte solution; the cycle lifetime of the battery is prolonged; the battery performance is improved; and meanwhile, the production cost of a membrane material for the system flow battery is greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a polymer electrolyte diaphragm material used in a neutral system zinc-iron liquid flow battery. Background technique [0002] Liquid flow battery is a new electrochemical energy storage technology. Compared with other energy storage technologies, it has high energy conversion efficiency, flexible system design, large storage capacity, free site selection, deep discharge, safety and environmental protection, and low maintenance costs. It can be widely used in wind energy, solar energy and other renewable energy generation and energy storage, emergency power system, backup power station and power system peak shaving and valley filling. Due to the advantages of high safety, good stability, long life (life > 15 years), and low cost, the neutral system zinc-iron flow battery is considered to be a kind of flow battery with high development potential. [0003] The battery separator is an important part of the flow battery, which ...
