Problems solved by technology

Thanks to the nano-scale carbon fiber size, the carbon fiber produced by electrospinning generally has a large specific surface area (10-1000m 2 g -1 ); but at the same time, the permeability of the electrospun carbon electrode is greatly reduced compared with the commercial carbon electrode, so directly using the electrospun carbon fiber electrode in the flow battery will cause a large concentration polarization, which will lead to the battery Can only operate at lower current densities

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of liquid flow batteries, in particular to an electrode with multiple diameters and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] In response to global climate change, environmental pollution, energy shortage and other issues, solar energy, wind energy and other renewable energy sources have received extensive attention and development. However, these renewable energy power generation has the characteristics of volatility and intermittency, so it is necessary to use large-scale energy storage systems to realize efficient grid connection of renewable energy power generation and realize peak regulation and frequency regulation of the power grid. In recent years, flow batteries have attracted widespread attention as an energy storage system due to their advantages such as no geographical restrictions, independent capacity and power, good safety, and long cycle life. [0003] As one of t...
