Embodiment Construction

[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] Step 1. Ultrasonic-mixed acid treatment of graphite felt, place a graphite felt (2.5cm*2.5cm) with a thickness of 4mm in a mixed acid solution containing 40mL of concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated nitric acid Put it in a polytetrafluoroethylene container, put it into an ultrasonic cleaner water bath, heat it to 80°C, and ultrasonicate for 10 minutes. After cooling to room temperature, rinse the graphite felt to neutral and dry it.

[0019] Step 2. Put the graphite felt obtained in step 1 into 0.1mol / L potassium permanganate solution to completely immerse it, and place it for 12 hours; take out and blot the residual solution on the surface.

[0020] Step 3. Put the graphite felt soaked in step 2 into a semi-closed evaporation container, evaporate absolute ethanol onto the graphite felt sample, and control the temperature at 60...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the organic battery technology in the field of electrochemical energy storage, and relates to a method for modifying a graphite felt electrode by manganese dioxide which can achieve the large-scale production, in particular to a method for modifying the graphite felt electrode for an organic flow battery. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, processing graphite felt through supersonic-acid mixing, so that the surface area of graphite fibers is increased and the reaction sites of a graphite electrode are increased, and the surface of the graphite fiber isnot obviously broken; growing manganese dioxide on the surfaces of the graphite fibers, so that the electrochemical reaction catalytic activity of the graphite fibers is enhanced, and the battery capacity and the energy efficiency are improved. The method is simple and easy to operate, can realize large-scale production, is low in application cost, and provides an electrode material treatment approach with greatly improved performance for preparation of the organic flow battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the organic battery technology in the field of electrochemical energy storage, and relates to a method for manganese dioxide modified graphite felt electrodes capable of large-scale production, in particular to a method for modifying graphite felt electrodes for organic liquid flow batteries. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the economy, problems such as energy shortages have become increasingly serious, which has greatly promoted the research on renewable energy by researchers from all over the world. Due to the problems of discontinuity, instability, and difficulty in grid connection of renewable energy, its utilization rate is low, and the rate of curtailment of wind and light is high. Therefore, it is necessary to vigorously develop large-scale energy storage technologies that can be matched with it. Among various energy storage technologies, flow batteries have been vigorously developed due to t...
