Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of flow batteries in electrochemical energy storage, and discloses a flow battery based on a ternary eutectic solvent. On the basis of a binary eutectic solvent, a neutral hydrogen bond donor / acceptor is added to form a ternary eutectic solvent, the electronegativity difference between the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor, the steric hindrance of the space structure and the bond length of the hydrogen bond are microscopically adjusted, a binary hydrogen bond network structure is reconstructed, and a eutectic solvent system more suitable for redox couple is established. After the chemical and physical properties of the solvent system are improved, specifically, the viscosity and electrochemical impedance of the eutectic solvent system are remarkably reduced. The most important advantage is that after the redox couple is added, the redox couple is in a free state instead of a supramolecular compound, and shows good transport performance in the flow battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of flow batteries in electrochemical energy storage, and in particular relates to a flow battery based on a ternary deep eutectic solvent, which improves the electrochemical performance of the flow battery. Background technique [0002] The development of renewable energy has the defect of discontinuous and unstable power output, which needs to be solved by an efficient and low-cost energy storage system. Flow batteries are considered to be the most promising technology in large-scale energy storage due to their advantages of independent design of energy and power density. In recent years, flow batteries have made continuous progress in key materials such as electrolytes, ion exchange membranes, double-electrode plates, and electric pairs. Among them, the research on all-vanadium flow batteries proposed by Skyllas-Kazacos et al. has been relatively mature. Enter the stage of commercial application. However...
