Problems solved by technology

However, such bipolar plate materials have poor conductivity, especially because they contain more non-conductive polymers, so that the surface of the bipolar plate is composed of conductive particles and most of the non-conductive polymers. The point is in contact with the non-conductive polymer, which cannot form a conductive path, resulting in a large contact resistance between the bipolar plate and the electrode material, which increases the ohmic internal resistance of the battery and reduces the performance of the battery.

Abstract

The invention relates to a weldable bipolar plate for a flow battery and preparation and application thereof. The weldable bipolar plate comprises a main body layer consisting of high-density polyethylene, carbon nanotubes, a coupling agent and a lubricant, and the areas, in contact with the electrode, in the middle parts of the upper and lower surfaces of the main body layer are provided with high-conductivity coatings. The area, in contact with the electrode material, on the bipolar plate has relatively high conductivity and low contact resistance, so that the ohmic polarization of the battery is reduced, and the voltage efficiency of the battery is improved; and the contact area with the electrode frame has relatively high polymer content, so that enough high welding strength can be ensured during welding, and the sealing reliability of a galvanic pile is ensured.
