Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of a porous ion conduction membrane for a flow battery. One or two or more organic polymer resins are used as raw materials, and the raw materials are dissolved in an organic solvent, then immersed in the poor solvent A of the resin, and transferred to the poor solvent bath B of the resin after a certain period of time. Using the two-step immersion-precipitation phase inversion method, by controlling the exchange rate of solvent-non-solvent, the thickness of the separation layer and the dense layer can be precisely regulated, so that ion conduction with a thin and dense separation layer and a loose porous support layer structure can be obtained. membrane. The advantages of the preparation method of the ion-conducting membrane provided by the present invention: the controllable adjustment of battery performance can be realized, the synchronous improvement of ion selectivity and ion conductivity can be realized, and excellent battery performance can be obtained; it is simple and easy to implement, and it is easy to realize mass production . The ion-conducting membrane prepared by the invention has high mechanical strength and meets the requirements of battery assembly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the research field of flow batteries, in particular to the application of an ion-conducting membrane in flow batteries. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy and the smart grid industry, energy storage technology has received high attention, and large-scale energy storage technology is considered to be a key technology for large-scale utilization of renewable energy. Flow batteries, especially all-vanadium flow batteries, have the advantages of high safety, long cycle life, independent power and capacity, and are one of the preferred technologies for large-scale energy storage. The membrane is one of the key components of VFB, which plays a role in blocking the cross-blending of active materials in the positive and negative electrolytes, and at the same time transferring hydrogen ions to form a battery circuit. In general, an ideal membrane should have...
