Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of electrode material surface treatment and especially relates to a modified electrode for a full-vanadium flow battery and a preparation method thereof. A carbon paper or a carbon felt is used as a modified electrode base material. An antimonic stannic oxide nanometer particle is attached to the surface of the carbon paper or the carbon felt fiber. The preparation method for the modified electrode is characterized by comprising the following steps: utilizing stannic chloride, antimony chloride and isopropyl alcohol to prepare a precursor solution; stirring for 30min at 80 DEG C and ageing for 24h; soaking the carbon paper or the carbon felt into the solution; adopting a pulling method for attaching the nanometer particle from the related solution to the surface of the carbon paper or the carbon felt fiber; drying at 80-150 DEG C; and finally, putting the dried carbon paper into a tube furnace, and calcining for 90min at 450-550 DEG C, thereby completing the preparation of the modified electrode. The invention provides the modified electrode which has a simple structure and is convenient in preparation method. After the modified electrode is applied to the full-vanadium flow battery, the problems of insufficient anode activity and oxygen evolution side reaction of the full-vanadium flow battery can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a modified electrode applied to an all-vanadium redox flow battery and a preparation method thereof. technical background [0002] The increasing demand for energy and the ensuing environmental pollution threaten the survival and development of human beings. Optimizing the energy structure and vigorously developing and utilizing renewable energy are of great significance to my country's energy strategy. However, the inherent volatility and immediacy of renewable energy such as solar energy, wind energy, and water energy have restricted their wide application. Therefore, it has become a top priority to develop efficient energy storage technology, promote the development of the renewable energy technology market, and ensure the security of national resources and energy. [0003] As a green and high-efficiency large-scale energy storage and conversion device, the flow battery has attracted the attention of academia, industry and...
