Abstract

The invention discloses an electrolyte capable of improving hydroxy-anthraquinone solubility in an anthraquinone redox flow battery and a preparation method for the electrolyte, and belongs to the fields of energy and chemical industry. The electrolyte comprises deionized water, potassium hydroxide, hydroxy-anthraquinone and tetra alkyl ammonium halide, wherein the hydroxy-anthraquinone is selected from at least one kind of 1, 4-dyhydroxyl anthraquinone, 1, 8-dyhydroxyl anthraquinone, 2, 6-dyhydroxyl anthraquinone and 1, 4, 5, 8-tetrahydroxy anthraquinone; the tetra alkyl ammonium halide is preferably selected from tetraethyl ammonium chloride and tetraethyl ammonium bromide, wherein the adding mass percentage of the tetra alkyl ammonium halide is 0.1-20% of the total weight of the electrolyte. At the room temperature, hydroxy-anthraquinone and tetra alkyl ammonium halide are dissolved into potassium hydroxide at the mass ratio of 1-5 to 1, and steps of stirring and heating are performed to reach 60-90 DEG C to obtain the electrolyte. The hydroxy-anthraquinone is high in solubility in the electrolyte provided by the invention; and in addition, when the electrolyte is used for the anthraquinone redox flow battery, the battery obtains very excellent charging-discharging performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of energy and chemical industry, and relates to a chemical reagent required for improving the solubility of hydroxyanthraquinone electrolyte and a specific preparation method. Background technique [0002] Anthraquinone flow battery is a new type of flow battery, which is mainly composed of negative electrolyte-hydroxyanthraquinone solution, positive electrolyte-potassium ferrocyanide solution, liquid storage tank, bipolar plate, proton exchange membrane and so on. The negative electrode electrolyte—hydroxyanthraquinone solution is an important part of the anthraquinone flow battery, and the concentration of the hydroxyanthraquinone solution directly affects the charge and discharge performance and current density of the anthraquinone flow battery. [0003] Hydroxyanthraquinone is a small molecular organic compound, slightly soluble in water, and turns purple when dissolved in alkaline solutions such as potassium hydr...
