Problems solved by technology

However, due to the oxygen evolution at the positive electrode, the current efficiency of the positive electrode is much lower than that of the negative electrode.
As a result, after the activation is completed, the negative electrode will accumulate more elemental zinc
Dissolution can lead to blockage of the flow channel and short circuit of the positive and negative electrodes, which will seriously harm the stability of the system

Abstract

The invention relates to a zinc-nickel flow battery, in particular to a negative electrode of a zinc-nickel flow battery, in which zinc oxide is attached to the surface of the substrate; the specific preparation process is as follows: the substrate is immersed in the In the soluble zinc salt solution for 10-60min; after drying at 60-80°C, transfer to a tube furnace, and burn at 300-400°C for 1-5h in an oxygen atmosphere; obtain the required negative electrode. The invention solves the problem of zinc accumulation in the zinc negative electrode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of a zinc-nickel flow battery, in particular to a negative electrode of a zinc-nickel flow battery. [0002] technical background [0003] Zinc-nickel flow battery is a new type of low-cost, high-efficiency, and environment-friendly flow energy storage battery. It has the advantages of high energy density and current efficiency, simple and easy operation of the device, long service life, and low cost. Its main application It is widely used in power grid peak shaving, renewable energy power generation such as wind energy and solar energy, electric vehicles and other fields. [0004] The zinc / nickel flow battery has only one electrolyte storage tank, the electrolyte is a flowing zincate alkaline solution, no ion exchange membrane is used in the battery, and the current is formed by the free flow of ions in the battery cavity and the directional movement of the electrons in the external circuit circuit. During charging,...
