The electrode material is prepared by the following steps of: taking a mixtureof a high-molecular polymer and a metal salt as a precursor; preparing nanofibers by adopting an electrostatic spinning method; and performing high-temperature carbonization treatment, and performingsurface oxidation and etching to manufacture the electrode material, wherein the diameter of the carbon nanofibers is 100-1000 nm, the diameter of the metal particles is 2-100 nm, the metal particlesare distributed on the surfaces of the carbon nanofibers, one parts of the metal particles are embedded into the carbon nanofibers, and the other parts of the metal particles are exposed out of the surfaces of the carbon nanofibers. The carbon nanofiber/metal composite electrode prepared by adopting the preparation method has good electrocatalytic activity and electrochemical reversibility when used for the flow battery, and has the advantages of simple preparation method, few procedures, easily available raw materials, low price and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of flow batteries, in particular to an electrode material for a flow battery and its preparation. Background technique [0002] Energy and the environment are two major issues facing mankind in the 21st century. With the continuous development of the economy, the human demand for energy is increasing. It is estimated that by 2050, human demand for energy will double and triple by the end of this century. On the one hand, traditional fossil energy reserves are limited and cannot meet the needs of social development. On the other hand, excessive consumption of fossil energy has brought serious environmental problems. In order to solve the dual problems of energy shortage and environmental pollution, the utilization and development of renewable energy is very important. However, renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy is affected by the natural environment such as day and night and season changes, and th...
