Problems solved by technology

However, because ordinary graphite felt contains some impurities such as metal impurities, organic impurities, etc., the existence of these impurities will have a harmful effect on the performance of the battery. Therefore, when using graphite felt to make zinc series batteries, graphite felt must be treated before it can be used.

Embodiment 1

[0024] (1) Remove organic matter; anneal the graphite felt at a temperature of 500-900° C. for 5-15 minutes;

[0025] (2) Remove general impurities; place the graphite felt treated in step (1) in No. 1 solution (SC-1), treat it at a temperature of 70-80°C for 5-10 minutes, and then clean it with deionized water for 5- 10 minutes; Next, use No. 2 solution (SC-2), treat at 70-80°C for 5-10 minutes, and then wash with deionized water for 5-10 minutes.

[0026] (3) Removing trace metal impurities that are difficult to remove; placing the graphite felt treated in step (2) in a microwave oven for 5-15 minutes.

[0027] Among them, the formula of No. 1 liquid is NH by volume 3 ·H 2 O: H 2 o 2 :H 2 The ratio of O is 1:2:5, and the formulation of No. 2 liquid is HCl:H by volume 2 o 2 :H 2 The ratio of O is 1:2:8.

[0028] Use the graphite felt processed by the above process, with 1M ZnI2 aqueous solution as the electrolyte, add alcohol with a volume of 1 / 10, and add a certain ...

Embodiment 2

[0030] Method is identical with embodiment 1;

[0031] The No. 1 liquid formula used is NH by volume 3 ·H 2 O: H 2 o 2 :H 2 The ratio of O is 1:1:4, and the formula of No. 2 liquid is 1:1:6 by volume.

[0032] Use the graphite felt processed by the above process, with 1M ZnI2 aqueous solution as the electrolyte, add alcohol with a volume of 1 / 10, and add a certain amount of iodine (2 times the molar number of zinc iodide at the positive electrode, with a cation exchange membrane as Diaphragm: It is protected by glass fiber cloth, and the graphite felt treated by this process is used as an electrode material to form a zinc-iodine battery.

[0033] Moreover, the cycle capacity of this battery charge and discharge can also be as long as thousands of times. This kind of battery has no over-discharge problem, because even after over-discharge, it is easy to recover according to the current-limiting and voltage-limiting mode, which is beyond the reach of most secondary batteri...

Abstract

The invention discloses a graphite felt treatment process including steps of: 1) organic substance removal: annealing the graphite felt at 500-900 DEG C for 5-15 min; 2) removal common impurities: treating the graphite felt in a first solution (SC-1) at 70-80 DEG C for 5-10 min, and washing the graphite felt for 5-10 min in deionized water, then treating the graphite felt in a second solution (SC-2) at 70-80 DEG C for 5-10 min, and washing the graphite felt for 5-10 min in deionized water; (3) removal of stubborn trace metal impurities: treating the graphite felt in a microwave oven for 5-15 min. The treatment process is simple and can remove the organic substances and metal impurities from the graphite felt. The processed graphite felt can be used for producing zinc-bromine or zinc-iodinebatteries.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a treatment process of graphite felt, which belongs to the field of material science and engineering. Background technique [0002] In order to increase the current density, zinc-series batteries (such as zinc-bromine batteries or zinc-iodine batteries) often use graphite felt (also known as carbon felt or carbon felt) structure to make electrodes, which can increase the specific surface area of ​​the electrode on the one hand and prevent branching. Crystal plays a certain auxiliary role. [0003] In fact, graphite felt is mainly composed of carbon fiber, and the keel is mainly glass (silicon dioxide). Taking polyacrylonitrile-based stone grinding station (also known as carbon felt) as an example, the area weight is 500g / m 2 and 1000g / m 2 , longitudinal and transverse strength (N / mm 2 ) are 0.12, 0.16 and 0.10, 0.12 respectively, the elongation at break is 3%, 4% and 18%, 16%, and the resistivity (Ω·mm) is 4~6, 3.5~5.5 and 7...
