Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of liquid flow batteries, in particular to a porous carbon fiber electrode for liquid flow batteries and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The energy storage system with high power density is the development direction and trend of energy storage technology in the future. In order to realize the efficient operation of the battery under high current density, it is necessary to further improve the key components of the battery. Taking a flow battery as an example, it is necessary to further reduce the activation polarization, ohmic polarization and concentration polarization of the battery. To reduce the activation polarization of the battery, the specific surface area of ​​the electrode material needs to be greatly increased. At present, the electrode materials used in flow batteries are mainly graphite felt, carbon paper and carbon cloth. These commercial carbon materials ge...
