For example, a thickness of 1nm-1mm for the positive electrode friction layer means that the thickness of the positive electrode friction layer can be 1nm, 2nm, 3nm, 4nm, 5nm, 6nm, 7nm, 8nm, 9nm, 10nm, 11nm, 12nm, 13nm, 14nm, 15nm, 16nm, 17nm, 18nm, 19nm, 20nm, 21nm, 22nm, 24nm, 28nm, 30nm, 32nm, 35nm, 38nm, 40nm, 50nm, 60nm, 70nm, 80nm, 90nm, 100nm, 110nm, 120nm, 130nm, 140nm, 150nm, 160nm, or 170nm. 180nm, 190nm, 200nm, 210nm, 220nm, 230nm, 240nm, 250nm, 260nm, 270nm, 280nm, 290nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, 700nm, 800nm, 900nm, 1μm, 2μm, 3μm, 4μm, 5μm, 6μm, 7μm, 8μm, 9μm, 10μm, 20μm, 50μm, 80μm, 100μm, 200μm, 300μm, 400μm, 500μm, 600μm, 700μm, 800μm, 900μm or 1mm, etc., and the ranges formed by them, etc.

[0424] In a first aspect of this application, a molecular energy power generation device is provided, comprising: a positive electrode; a negative electrode, wherein the positive electrode and the negative electrode are disposed opposite to each other, and the triboelectric charge density on at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode is greater than the triboelectric charge density on the negative electrode; a support member disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, wherein the positive electrode and the negative electrode are insulated from each other, and the support member, the positive electrode, and the negative electrode enclose a receiving space; and a liquid filler located within the receiving space, wherein the liquid filler is in contact with the positive electrode and the negative electrode.

[0425] It is understood that "the triboelectric charge density of at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode is greater than the triboelectric charge density of the negative electrode" means that the triboelectric charge density of at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode facing the negative electrode is greater than the triboelectric charge density of the surface of the negative electrode facing the positive electrode. Specifically, based on the difference in triboelectric charge density between the positive and negative electrodes and the thermal motion of molecules in the liquid filler, the surfaces of the positive electrode facing the negative electrode and the negative electrode facing the positive electrode will collide and rub against the liquid filler to achieve charge transfer, generating a potential difference between the positive and negative electrodes.

[0426] It is understood that "the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are insulated" means that the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 and the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1 are insulated inside the molecular energy power generation device.

[0427] In this application, the triboelectric charge density can be measured using the following method: liquid mercury is used as a reference electrode, and the test material is placed on a controllable linear motor. The experiment is conducted in a glove box filled with ultrapure nitrogen. During the experiment, the sample and mercury are periodically contacted and separated by the linear motor. A Faraday cage and shielded wires are used to reduce external electromagnetic interference. The amount of charge transferred during contact and separation is determined by measuring the open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current. When the two materials come into contact, charge transfer occurs in the contact area due to the contact electrification effect. Upon separation, charge separation generates a potential difference between the electrodes. The potential difference increases with the separation distance until it reaches a maximum value. When the two materials come into contact again, charge flows through the circuit until the potential difference disappears. The triboelectric charge density is calculated by dividing the amount of transferred charge by the contact area.

[0428] The triboelectric capacity of materials located at different positions in the triboelectric sequence varies. In some embodiments of this application, materials located at different positions in the triboelectric sequence can be selected to form the positive electrode (the surface facing the negative electrode) and the negative electrode (the surface facing the positive electrode), thereby achieving a difference in triboelectric charge density between the two.

[0429] In some embodiments of this application, the difference in triboelectric charge density between at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode and the negative electrode can be equal to or greater than 0.1 μC / m. 2 It can be selected as equal to or greater than 1μC / m 2 Alternatively, it can be selected as equal to or greater than 10 μC / m 2 .

[0430] In some embodiments of this application, the difference in triboelectric charge density between the positive electrode and the negative electrode can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs. For example, it can be adjusted by changing the type of positive electrode material and / or negative electrode material, ensuring that the triboelectric charge density on at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode (facing the negative electrode) is greater than the triboelectric charge density on the surface of the negative electrode (facing the positive electrode). For example, the difference in triboelectric charge density between at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode (facing the negative electrode) and the surface of the negative electrode (facing the positive electrode) can be equal to or greater than 0.1 μC / m². 2 For example, it can be 0.1 μC / m 2 0.2μC / m 2 0.5μC / m 2 0.8μC / m 2 1μC / m 2 2μC / m 2 5μC / m 2 8μC / m 2 10μC / m 2 15μC / m 2 20μC / m 2 25μC / m 2 30μC / m 2 35μC / m 2 40μC / m 2 45μC / m 2 50μC / m 2 55μC / m 2 60μC / m 2 65μC / m 2 70μC / m 2 75μC / m 2 80μC / m 2 85μC / m 2 90μC / m 2 95μC / m 2 100μC / m 2 105μC / m 2 110μC / m 2 115μC / m 2 120μC / m 2 125μC / m 2 130μC / m 2 135μC / m 2 140μC / m 2 145μC / m 2 150μC / m 2 155μC / m 2 160μC / m 2 165μC / m2 170μC / m 2 175μC / m 2 180μC / m 2 185μC / m 2 190μC / m 2 195μC / m 2 200μC / m 2 210μC / m 2 220μC / m 2 Or 250μC / m 2 And so on, or it could be a range consisting of any of the above values, such as 0.1 μC / m 2 -200μC / m 2 Or 0.1μC / m 2 -100μC / m 2 Etc. Increasing the difference in triboelectric charge density between the positive and negative electrodes is beneficial for increasing the potential difference generated between them. Optionally, the difference in triboelectric charge density between at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode (facing the negative electrode) and the surface of the negative electrode (facing the positive electrode) can be equal to or greater than 1 μC / m. 2 The optional value can be equal to or greater than 10 μC / m 2 .

[0431] It is understood that the molecular energy power generation device of this application may include a variety of specific implementation methods:

[0432] For example, referring to Figure 1, the molecular energy power generation device may include, but is not limited to, the following embodiments: the molecular energy power generation device includes: a positive electrode 1; a negative electrode 2, the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are disposed opposite to each other, the triboelectric charge density of the positive electrode 1 is greater than the triboelectric charge density of the negative electrode 2; a support member 3, the support member 3 is disposed between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2, the positive electrode 1 is insulated from the negative electrode 2, the support member 3 and the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 enclose a receiving space 4; and a liquid filler 5, the liquid filler 5 is located in the receiving space 4, and the liquid filler 5 is in contact with the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. In this structure, the triboelectric charge density of the positive electrode 1 is greater than that of the negative electrode 2. The two electrodes also have different abilities to gain or lose electrons through collisions and friction with the liquid filler 5. When the liquid filler 5 is placed in the containing space 4, the molecules contained therein will undergo thermal motion. Due to the thermal motion of the fluid molecules, the macromolecules, ions, colloids, or particles that may exist in the liquid filler 5 will undergo chain segment motion / Brownian motion under the impetus of the small molecules. Within the limited space, the liquid filler 5 will collide and rub against the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 due to the random motion of the molecules and the possible ions, colloids, particles, and polymer chain segments, thereby generating opposite triboelectric charges. That is, it can gain electrons through collisions and friction with the positive electrode 1 and transfer electrons to the negative electrode 2 through collisions and friction, so as to generate a potential difference between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. This potential difference can then be drawn out through the electrodes, forming a detectable current in the external circuit.

[0433] In some embodiments of this application, the specific materials, structures, or compositions of the positive electrode 1, negative electrode 2, support member 3, liquid filler 5, etc., can be flexibly selected according to actual needs:

[0434] For example, in some specific embodiments, the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 can be selected with different structures and / or combinations.

[0435] For example, in some specific embodiments, the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 can be selected from different material combinations.

[0436] For example, in some specific embodiments, the support 3 may be selected as a dense structure and / or a porous structure.

[0437] For example, in some specific embodiments, the support member 3 can be selected from different methods such as frame support or porous layered support.

[0438] For example, in some specific embodiments, the support member 3 may be selected as a conductor member and / or an insulator member.

[0439] For example, in some specific embodiments, the liquid filler 5 can be selected from one or more combinations of pure liquid, solution, colloid, emulsion, and suspension.

[0440] For example, in some specific embodiments, the accommodating space 4 can be either an accommodating space that connects the positive and negative electrodes, or it can be other forms of accommodating space that can realize the directional movement of charge between the positive and negative electrodes, such as all forms of accommodating space that can realize the directional transfer of charge driven by the potential difference between the positive and negative electrodes.

[0441] In some embodiments of this application, the specific structure and material composition of the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are not particularly limited, as long as the triboelectric charge density of the positive electrode 1 is greater than that of the negative electrode 2.

[0442] In some embodiments, referring to FIG3, the positive electrode 1 may include a positive electrode friction layer 12, at least a portion of which is located on the side of the positive electrode 1 facing the receiving space 4 (or, in other words, facing the negative electrode 2). The positive electrode 1 can generate electricity through collision and friction between the positive electrode friction layer 12 and the liquid filler 5. Optionally, the positive electrode friction layer 12 may be one or more of, but not limited to, metals, metal compounds, inorganic non-metallic compounds, carbon materials, and polymers. Further alternatively, the positive electrode friction layer 12 may be used directly as the positive electrode 1, or it may be combined with other electrode materials to serve as the positive electrode 1.

[0443] For example, the positive electrode friction layer 12 can be a conductive friction layer (which can also have a current collection effect). When the conductive friction layer has sufficient thickness or hardness, it can be directly used as the positive electrode 1. For example, the conductive friction layer can include, but is not limited to, metal layers, conductive metal oxide layers, etc., such as, but not limited to, pure metal foil (such as aluminum foil, copper foil, etc.), alloy foil, indium tin oxide sheet, conductive rubber layer or graphite layer, etc.

[0444] For example, referring to Figure 3, the positive electrode 1 may include a positive electrode friction layer 12, and the positive electrode 1 may also include a positive electrode current collector 11, which may be disposed on the side of the positive electrode friction layer 12 away from the receiving space 4. The positive electrode friction layer 12 and the positive electrode current collector 11 can be combined to form the positive electrode 1. The positive electrode current collector 11 enables charge conduction of the positive electrode 1 and also provides support for the positive electrode friction layer 12. For example, when the positive electrode friction layer 12 is an insulating layer (such as a mica layer) or has relatively poor conductivity, the positive electrode current collector 11 can be combined to achieve charge conduction of the positive electrode 1. Alternatively, when the positive electrode friction layer 12 is a thin film structure such as a metal plating layer, a metal oxide plating layer, or a composite coating, the positive electrode current collector 11 can be used as a carrier for the positive electrode friction layer 12, fixing the positive electrode friction layer 12 and providing structural support for the positive electrode friction layer 12 while achieving charge conduction. In this structure, the triboelectric charge density of the positive electrode friction layer 12 is greater than that of the negative electrode. Optionally, the triboelectric charge density of the positive electrode friction layer 12 can be greater than that of the positive electrode current collector 11. This facilitates the enhancement of the ability of the liquid filler to collide and rub against the positive electrode to gain electrons, thereby promoting energy conversion. It is understood that the positive electrode current collector 11 is a conductor. Optionally, the conductor can be one or more of the following: metal, metal alloy, iron(III) oxide, and carbon conductor. For example, the positive electrode current collector can be, but is not limited to, a metal foil, such as copper foil or aluminum foil.

[0445] In some embodiments of this application, referring to Figures 2 or 3, the negative electrode 2 may include a negative electrode friction layer 22, at least a portion of which is located on the side of the negative electrode 2 facing the receiving space 4 (or, more broadly, facing the positive electrode 1). The negative electrode 2 can generate electricity through collision and friction between the negative electrode friction layer 22 and the liquid filler 5. Optionally, the negative electrode friction layer 22 may be one or more of, but not limited to, metals, metal compounds, inorganic non-metallic compounds, carbon materials, and polymers. Further alternatively, the negative electrode friction layer 22 may be used directly as the negative electrode 2, or it may be combined with other electrode materials to serve as the negative electrode 2.

[0446] For example, the negative electrode friction layer 22 can be a conductive friction layer (which can also have a current collection effect). When the conductive friction layer has sufficient thickness or hardness, it can be directly used as the negative electrode 2. For example, the conductive friction layer can include, but is not limited to, a metal layer, a conductive metal oxide layer, a conductive polymer layer, a carbon material layer, etc., such as, but not limited to, pure metal foil (such as aluminum foil, copper foil, etc.), alloy foil, conductive rubber layer, or graphite layer, etc.

[0447] For example, referring to Figures 2 or 3, the negative electrode 2 may include a negative electrode friction layer 22, and the negative electrode 2 may also include a negative electrode current collector 21, which may be disposed on the side of the negative electrode friction layer 22 away from the receiving space 4. The negative electrode friction layer 22 and the negative electrode current collector 21 can be combined to form the negative electrode 2. The negative electrode current collector 21 can realize the charge conduction of the negative electrode 2, and at the same time, it can also provide support for the negative electrode friction layer 22. For example, when the negative electrode friction layer 22 is an insulating layer (such as a polyurethane rubber layer) or has relatively poor conductivity, the negative electrode current collector 21 can be combined to realize the charge conduction of the negative electrode 2. Alternatively, when the negative electrode friction layer 22 is a thin film structure such as a metal plating layer, a metal oxide plating layer, a polymer film, or a composite coating, the negative electrode current collector 21 can be used as a carrier for the negative electrode friction layer 22 to fix the negative electrode friction layer 22, and provide structural support for the negative electrode friction layer 22 while realizing charge conduction. It is understood that the triboelectric charge density of the negative electrode friction layer 22 is less than that of the positive electrode friction layer 12 and / or the positive electrode current collector 11. Optionally, the triboelectric charge density of the negative electrode friction layer 22 is less than that of the negative electrode current collector 21, which is beneficial for improving the ability of the liquid filler to transfer electrons to the negative electrode after collision and friction with the negative electrode, thereby promoting energy conversion. It is understood that the negative electrode current collector 21 is a conductor, and optionally, the conductor may be one or more of metals, metal alloys, iron oxide, and carbon conductors. For example, the negative electrode current collector may be, but is not limited to, a metal foil, such as copper foil or aluminum foil.

[0448] In some embodiments of this application, referring to FIG3, the positive electrode 1 may include a positive current collector 11, and the negative electrode 2 may include a negative current collector 21. Based on the specific structure and material composition of the positive and negative electrodes, the materials of the positive current collector 11 and the negative current collector 21 may be the same or different. The triboelectric charge density of the positive current collector 11 may be greater than or equal to the triboelectric charge density of the negative current collector 21. For example:

[0449] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1, the positive electrode 1 may consist only of a positive electrode friction layer, which also functions as a current collector; the negative electrode 2 may consist only of a negative electrode friction layer, which also functions as a current collector. That is, the positive electrode friction layer also serves as the positive current collector, and the negative electrode friction layer also serves as the negative current collector. In this case, the positive and negative current collectors are made of different materials; for example, the positive current collector can be aluminum foil, and the negative current collector can be copper foil. In the triboelectric generation sequence (in order from positive to negative charge), aluminum precedes copper, meaning that the triboelectric charge density of aluminum is greater than that of copper.

[0450] In some embodiments, the positive electrode 1 may include a positive electrode friction layer and a positive electrode current collector, with the positive electrode friction layer disposed on the side of the positive electrode current collector facing the receiving space. The negative electrode 2 may consist only of a negative electrode friction layer, which also serves as a current collector, i.e., the negative electrode friction layer also functions as a negative electrode current collector. In this case, the positive electrode current collector and the negative electrode current collector may be made of the same or different materials. For example, referring to Figure 3, the positive electrode 1 may include an aluminum foil and a first polymer layer located on the side of the aluminum foil facing the receiving space 4, and the negative electrode may be a copper foil; as another example, the positive electrode 1 may include a copper foil and a first polymer layer located on the side of the copper foil facing the receiving space 4, and the negative electrode may include a copper foil. Optionally, the first polymer layer may be a polyamide (PA) layer. In the triboelectric generation sequence (in order from positive to negative charge), PA precedes aluminum, i.e., the triboelectric charge density of PA is greater than that of aluminum.

[0451] In some embodiments, the positive electrode 1 may consist only of a positive electrode friction layer, which also functions as a current collector. The negative electrode 2 may include a negative electrode friction layer 22 and a negative electrode current collector 21, with the friction layer located on the side of the current collector facing the receiving space. In this case, the positive electrode current collector 11 and the negative electrode current collector 21 may be made of the same or different materials. For example, referring to Figure 2, the positive electrode 1 may be an aluminum foil, and the negative electrode 2 may include a copper foil and a second polymer layer located on the side of the copper foil facing the receiving space 4. As another example, the positive electrode 1 may be a copper foil, and the negative electrode 2 may include a copper foil and a second polymer layer located on the side of the copper foil facing the receiving space 4. Optionally, the second polymer layer may be a polyacrylonitrile (PAN) layer, a polystyrene (PS) layer, or a polyethylene (PE) layer. In the triboelectric generation sequence (in order from positive to negative charge), copper precedes PAN, PS, and PE, meaning the triboelectric charge density of copper is greater than that of PAN, PS, and PE.

[0452] In some embodiments, the positive electrode 1 may include a positive electrode friction layer and a positive electrode current collector layer, and the negative electrode 2 may include a negative electrode friction layer and a negative electrode current collector layer. Optionally, the positive electrode current collector layer and the negative electrode current collector layer may be made of the same or different materials. For example, the positive electrode 1 may include an aluminum foil and a first polymer layer located on the side of the aluminum foil facing the receiving space 4, and the negative electrode 2 may include a copper foil and a second polymer layer located on the side of the copper foil facing the receiving space 4. As another example, the positive electrode 1 may include a copper foil and a first polymer layer located on the side of the copper foil facing the receiving space 4, and the negative electrode 2 may include a copper foil and a second polymer layer located on the side of the copper foil facing the receiving space 4. Optionally, the first polymer layer may be a PA layer; the second polymer layer may be a PAN layer, a PS layer, or a PE layer.

[0453] Optionally, the positive electrode 1 may include a first polymer layer, and the negative electrode 2 may include a second polymer layer. The first and second polymer layers may be independently doped with conductive agents. This further facilitates controlling the overall internal resistance of the molecular energy power generation device within a suitable range. It is understood that the doping amount of the conductive agent in the first and second polymer layers should be sufficient to ensure insulation between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. Optionally, the conductive agent doped in the first polymer layer may be the same material as the positive electrode current collector, and / or, the conductive agent doped in the second polymer layer may be the same material as the negative electrode current collector. This helps reduce the risk of electrochemical reactions interfering with the device's power generation performance and / or lifespan due to differences in the conductive agent and current collector materials.

[0454] In some embodiments of this application, the support member 3 may include a conductor and / or an insulator. The materials of the conductor and insulator are not particularly limited, and those skilled in the art can choose flexibly according to actual needs.

[0455] For example, the insulator may include one or more of organic and inorganic insulators. Exemplarily, the organic insulator may include, but is not limited to, one or more of plastics and rubbers. Optionally, the plastic may include, but is not limited to, one or more of polystyrene, polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyacrylonitrile, polyimide, polydimethylsiloxane, polyester, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyamide, polyvinyl butyral, bisphenol A, polyvinylidene chloride, and polymethyl methacrylate. Optionally, the rubber may include, but is not limited to, one or more of styrene-butadiene rubber, chloroprene rubber, cis-butadiene rubber, nitrile rubber, silicone rubber, and fluororubber. Exemplarily, the inorganic insulator may include, but is not limited to, one or more of ceramics, glass, and mica.

[0456] For example, the conductor may include, but is not limited to, one or more of metals, metal alloys, iron(III) oxide, carbon conductors, and quantum dots. Exemplarily, the metal may include, but is not limited to, one or more of iron, copper, aluminum, nickel, and silver. Exemplarily, the metal alloy may include, but is not limited to, one or more of copper-tin alloys, copper-zinc alloys, copper-aluminum alloys, nickel-copper alloys, nickel-iron alloys, nickel-titanium alloys, aluminum-silicon alloys, aluminum-zinc alloys, aluminum-nickel alloys, aluminum-iron alloys, aluminum-tin alloys, silicon-iron alloys, and titanium-iron alloys. Exemplarily, the carbon conductor may include, but is not limited to, one or more of carbon powder, carbon nanotubes, graphene, graphene oxide, mesoporous carbon spheres, fullerenes, and expanded graphite.

[0457] In some embodiments, referring to FIG3, the support member 3 may include a conductor, one end of which may be connected to one of the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2, and the other end of which may be provided with an insulating layer 6a, which may be connected to the other of the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. This achieves insulation between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2, reducing the risk of short circuits in the internal structure of the device.

[0458] In some embodiments, referring to FIG3, the conductor can be made of the same material as the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2; or, when the positive electrode 1 includes a positive electrode friction layer 12 and / or the negative electrode 2 includes a negative electrode friction layer 22, the conductor can be made of the same material as the positive electrode friction layer 12 or the negative electrode friction layer 22. This increases the area of ​​the inner surface of the molecular energy power generation device that collides with the liquid filler and generates electricity through friction, thus promoting energy conversion.

[0459] In some embodiments, the insulating layer 6a may include one or more of organic and inorganic insulators. Optionally, the insulating layer 6a is a dry insulating layer with good thermal stability, and its performance will not change significantly due to molecular thermal motion when in contact with the positive and negative electrodes or left to stand.

[0460] In some embodiments, the organic insulator may include, but is not limited to, one or more of insulating adhesives, polyethylene, polystyrene, polypropylene, polyimide, polyacrylonitrile, polyethylene terephthalate, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyester, polyvinyl alcohol, and epoxy resin.

[0461] In some embodiments, the inorganic insulator may include, but is not limited to, one or more of alumina, sulfur, mica, and glass.

[0462] In some embodiments, the thickness of the insulating layer 6a can be 10nm-5cm, for example, it can be 10nm, 20nm, 50nm, 80nm, 100nm, 200nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, 700nm, 800nm, 900nm, 1μm, 2μm, 5μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 15μm, 18μm, 20μm, 30μm, 50μm, 80μm, 100μm, 200μm, 300μm.

[0463] In some embodiments of this application, the positive electrode 1 includes a positive current collector 11, and the negative electrode 2 includes a negative current collector 21. The positive current collector 11 and the negative current collector 21 can be made of the same material. Using the same material for the positive current collector 11 and the negative current collector 21 allows the current collector to participate only in the charge conduction process and not provide for chemical or electrochemical reactions such as electron gain or loss. This helps reduce the risk of interference with the device's power generation performance and / or lifespan due to potential electrochemical reactions between the positive and negative electrodes. Furthermore, it helps to balance the device's power generation performance and lifespan.

[0464] To further facilitate understanding of the molecular energy power generation device of the first aspect of this application, two different design schemes based on the same inventive concept and using current collectors of the same material for both the positive and negative electrodes are described in detail below. It should be noted that the molecular energy power generation device of the first aspect of this application includes, but is not limited to, the two design schemes described below, Scheme 1 and Scheme 2. Furthermore, it should be noted that the various features and effects described for Scheme 1 and Scheme 2 below also apply to the molecular energy power generation device described in the foregoing sections, even though they were not described or described in detail in the foregoing sections. The specific design schemes of Scheme 1 and Scheme 2 are as follows:

[0465] Option 1: Referring to Figure 4, the molecular energy power generation device includes structural components such as a positive electrode 1, a negative electrode 2, a support member, and a liquid filler 5: The positive electrode 1 includes a positive current collector 11; the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are arranged opposite to each other, and the negative electrode 2 includes a negative current collector 21. The positive current collector 11 and the negative current collector 21 are made of the same material, and the triboelectric charge density of at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 is greater than the triboelectric charge density of the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1; the support member includes a first support member 31, which is disposed between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2, forming a receiving space 41 that connects the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. The positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are insulated, and the receiving space 41 is filled with the liquid filler 5. The positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are in contact with the liquid filler 5; or,

[0466] Option 2: Referring to Figure 18, the molecular energy power generation device includes structural components such as a positive electrode 1, a negative electrode 2, a support, and a liquid filler 5. The positive electrode 1 includes a positive electrode current collector 11. The positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are arranged opposite to each other. The negative electrode 2 includes a negative electrode current collector 21. The positive electrode current collector 11 and the negative electrode current collector 21 are made of the same material. The triboelectric charge density of at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 is greater than the triboelectric charge density of the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1. The support includes a second support 32. An ion exchange membrane assembly 9 is provided between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. The ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and the positive electrode... A second support member 32 is provided between the positive electrode 1 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, forming a receiving space 42a that connects the positive electrode 1 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 with the second support member 32. A second support member 32 is also provided between the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and the negative electrode 2, forming a receiving space 42b that connects the negative electrode 2 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 with the second support member 32. The receiving spaces 42a and 42b are filled with the liquid filler 5, and the positive electrode 1, the negative electrode 2, and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 are in contact with the liquid filler 5.

[0467] In the molecular energy power generation device of this application, the triboelectric charge density of at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 is greater than the triboelectric charge density of the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1. Furthermore, the ability of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 and the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1 to gain or lose electrons through collision and friction with the liquid filler 5 is also different.

[0468] Regarding Scheme 1, when the liquid filler 5 is placed in the containing space 41, the molecules contained within it will undergo thermal motion. Due to the thermal motion of the fluid molecules, macromolecules, ions, colloids, or particles that may exist in the liquid filler 5 will undergo chain segment motion / Brownian motion under the impetus of smaller molecules. Within the limited space, the liquid filler 5 will collide and rub against the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 due to the random motion of molecules and possible ions, colloids, particles, and polymer chain segments, thereby generating opposite triboelectric charges. That is, it can gain electrons through collisions and friction with the positive electrode 1, and transfer electrons to the negative electrode 2 through collisions and friction, creating a potential difference between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. This potential difference can then be drawn out through the electrodes, forming a detectable current in the external circuit. Alternatively,

[0469] Regarding scheme 2, when the liquid filler 5 is placed in the containing space 42a and containing space 42b, the molecules contained in the liquid filler 5 will undergo thermal motion. Due to the thermal motion of the fluid molecules, macromolecules, ions, colloids, or particles that may exist in the liquid filler 5 will undergo chain segment motion / Brownian motion under the impetus of small molecules. Within the limited space, the liquid filler 5 will collide and rub against the positive electrode 1 and negative electrode 2 due to the random motion of molecules and possible ions, colloids, particles, polymer chain segments, etc., thereby generating opposite triboelectric charges, creating a potential difference between the positive electrode 1 and negative electrode 2. Ions present in the liquid filler 5 and / or ions generated by collisions and friction with the positive electrode 1 and negative electrode 2 will undergo directional migration under the drive of the potential difference, and undergo ion (selective) exchange with the ion exchange membrane component 9, realizing the directional transfer of charge between the positive and negative electrodes, and then leading out through the electrodes, forming a detectable current in the external circuit.

[0470] It is understandable that "the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are insulated" means that the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 and the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1 are insulated inside the molecular energy power generation device. Furthermore, for Scheme 2, the specific structure of its molecular energy power generation device also determines that the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are insulated.

[0471] The triboelectric capacity of the material located at different positions in the triboelectric sequence varies. In some embodiments of this application, materials located at different positions in the triboelectric sequence can be selected to form at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 and at least a portion of the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1, so as to achieve a difference in triboelectric charge density between the two.

[0472] In some embodiments of this application, the material and structure of the support member can be flexibly selected according to actual needs, as long as it can play a supporting role and satisfy the insulation of the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2.

[0473] In some embodiments of this application, for scheme 1, the first support member 31 and the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 can be fixed and sealed by insulating adhesive or insulating sealing layer. The position of the insulating adhesive or insulating sealing layer is not particularly limited, as long as it can achieve the fixation of the first support member 31 and the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2, and the sealing of the accommodating space 41. For example, when the first support member 31 is a dense structure, the insulating adhesive or insulating sealing layer can be disposed between the first support member 31 and the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2, or it can be disposed in the connection area of ​​the first support member 31, the positive electrode 1, and the negative electrode 2 on the outer surface of the device. Referring to Figure 5, when the first support member 31 is a porous structure, the insulating adhesive or insulating sealing layer can be disposed in the area of ​​the first support member 31 on the outer surface of the device and in the connection area of ​​the first support member 31, the positive electrode 1, and the negative electrode 2 on the outer surface of the device.

[0474] In some embodiments of this application, regarding scheme 2, referring to Figures 19 or 20, the second support member 32 can be fixed and sealed to the positive electrode 1, the negative electrode 2, and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 using insulating adhesive or an insulating sealing layer. The location of the insulating adhesive or insulating sealing layer is not particularly limited, as long as it achieves the fixation of the second support member 32 to the positive electrode 1, the negative electrode 2, and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, and the sealing of the accommodating spaces 42a and 42b. For example, referring to Figure 20, the insulating adhesive or insulating sealing layer can be located in the area of ​​the second support member 32 on the outer surface of the device and in the connection area of ​​the second support member 32, the positive electrode 1, the negative electrode 2, and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 on the outer surface of the device.

[0475] In some embodiments of this application, the outer surface of the receiving space may be provided with an insulating sealing layer 6b to seal the receiving space. For example, regarding embodiment 1, referring to Figures 6 or 11, the outer surface of the receiving space 41 may be provided with an insulating sealing layer 6b to seal the receiving space 41. For example, regarding embodiment 2, referring to Figures 19 or 20, the outer surfaces of the receiving spaces 42a and 42b may be provided with insulating sealing layers 6b to seal the receiving spaces 42a and 42b. This can reduce the risk of leakage, and reduce the risk of short circuits between the positive and negative electrodes and / or electrochemical corrosion. Furthermore, it is beneficial to balance the power generation performance and lifespan of the device.

[0476] In some embodiments of this application, referring to Figures 11 or 20, the support member may have a porous structure, and the outer surface of the support member may be provided with an insulating sealing layer 6b. This not only helps to increase the effective area for collision and friction between the liquid filler 5 and the positive and negative electrodes, or the effective area for selective permeation of ions into the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, thus improving the power generation performance of the device, but also avoids device leakage and reduces the risk of short circuits and / or electrochemical corrosion between the positive and negative electrodes.

[0477] It is understood that in this application, "outer surface of the receiving space" refers to the area of ​​the receiving space located on the outer surface of the device; "outer surface of the support" refers to the surface of the support on the side away from the receiving space.

[0478] In some embodiments of this application, the specific material or composition of the insulating sealing layer 6b is not particularly limited, as long as it achieves the insulation and sealing effects. For example, the insulating sealing layer 6b may include, but is not limited to, one or more of adhesive tape, quick-drying adhesive, or hot melt adhesive. As another example, the insulating sealing layer 6b may include, but is not limited to, one or more of epoxy resin adhesive, cyanoacrylate adhesive, polyvinyl alcohol adhesive, polybutadiene adhesive, polyesterimide adhesive, polyimide adhesive, polyurethane adhesive, polyester adhesive, and silicone adhesive. Using an insulating sealing layer 6b with adhesive properties also helps to improve the stability of the device structure.

[0479] In some embodiments of this application, the thickness of the insulating sealing layer 6b can be 10nm-5cm, for example, it can be 10nm, 20nm, 50nm, 80nm, 100nm, 200nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, 700nm, 800nm, 900nm, 1μm, 2μm, 5μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 15μm, 18μm, 20μm, 30μm, 50μm, 80μm, 100μm, 200μm, 3 The thickness of the insulating sealing layer 6b can be 00μm, 400μm, 500μm, 600μm, 700μm, 800μm, 900μm, 1mm, 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 1.8mm, 2mm, 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 18mm, 20mm, 30mm, 50mm, 80mm, 100mm, 200mm, 300mm, 500mm, 800mm, 1cm, 2cm, 3cm, 4cm, or 5cm, etc., or can be any range of the above values.

Optionally, the conductor is made of the same material as the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2, and optionally, it can be made of the same material as the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 or the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1; or, the positive electrode 1 can include a positive electrode friction layer 12, at least a portion of which is located on the side of the positive electrode 1 facing the receiving space 41 or the negative electrode 2, and / or, the negative electrode 2 includes a negative electrode friction layer 22, at least a portion of which is located on the side of the negative electrode 2 facing the receiving space 41 or the positive electrode 1, and the conductor is made of the same material as the positive electrode friction layer 12 or the negative electrode friction layer 22.

[0483] For example, in Scheme 2, the second support member 32 can be a conductor. One end of the conductor can be connected to the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and one of the positive / negative electrodes, and the other end of the conductor can be provided with an insulating layer, which can be connected to the other of the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and the positive / negative electrode. Optionally, the material of the conductor located between the positive electrode 1 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 can be the same as the material of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2, and / or, the material of the conductor located between the negative electrode 2 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 can be the same as the material of the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1.

Further optionally, the thickness of the insulating layer is 10 nm-5 cm, optionally 50 nm-5 mm, and further optionally 1 μm-50 μm. Other related characteristics and effects of the insulating layer have been described in the foregoing sections and will not be repeated here.

[0485] In some embodiments of this application, the support member can be an insulating support member, which helps to further reduce the risk of positive and negative short circuits and / or electrochemical corrosion. For example, in embodiment 1, the first support member 31 can be an insulating support member. For example, in embodiment 2, the second support member 32 can be an insulating support member.

[0486] In some embodiments of this application, the support member may include an organic insulating support member and / or an inorganic insulating support member. Exemplarily, the organic insulating support member may include, but is not limited to, one or more of plastics and rubbers.

[0488] In some embodiments of this application, the support member can be a support member that has been soaked in the liquid filler 5. This helps to reduce the risk that the liquid filler 5 in the accommodating space will be consumed or fixed due to wetting or adsorption of the support member after device assembly, resulting in reduced collisions and friction between molecules or between molecules and positive and negative electrodes in the liquid filler 5, or reduced charge / ion transfer in the liquid filler 5, thereby affecting the electrical performance of the device.

[0489] In some embodiments of this application, the thickness of the support member (such as the first support member 31 or the second support member 32) can be 100nm-10cm, for example, it can be 100nm, 200nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, 700nm, 800nm, 900nm, 1μm, 2μm, 5μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 15μm, 18μm, 20μm, 30μm, 50μm, 80μm, 100μm, 200μm, 300μm, 400μm, 5 The thickness of the support member can be 00μm, 600μm, 700μm, 800μm, 900μm, 1mm, 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 1.8mm, 2mm, 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 18mm, 20mm, 30mm, 50mm, 80mm, 100mm, 200mm, 300mm, 500mm, 800mm, 1cm, 2cm, 3cm, 4cm, 5cm, 6cm, 7cm, 8cm, 9cm, or 10cm, etc., or it can be any range of the above values. The volume of the accommodating space can be changed by adjusting the thickness of the support member in the direction from the positive electrode 1 to the negative electrode 2. In this application, the thickness direction of the support member can be understood as a direction perpendicular to the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2.

[0490] In some embodiments of this application, regarding scheme 1, referring to FIG6, the first support member 31 may include a support frame 31a. The support frame 31a is located at or adjacent to the edge of the overlapping area of ​​the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. The support frame 31a and the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 enclose a receiving space 41 that connects the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. This allows for the formation of a larger receiving space 41 between the positive and negative electrodes, which is beneficial for improving the collision and triboelectric generation capabilities of the liquid filler 5 with the positive and negative electrodes, and promoting energy conversion in the molecular energy power generation device. It is understood that the "overlapping area of ​​the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2" refers to the area where the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 can overlap after the support member is removed. Furthermore, it is understood that the width of the support frame 31a is not particularly limited; those skilled in the art can flexibly choose it according to actual needs, as long as it can satisfy the support effect for the positive and negative electrodes. It is understood that the width direction of the support frame 31a refers to the distance from the inner surface of the support frame 31a to its outer surface along a direction away from the receiving space.

[0491] In some embodiments of this application, regarding scheme 1, referring to Figures 6, 7, or 8, the first support member 31 may include a support frame 31a, which may be a porous support frame, and the outer surface of the support frame 31a may be provided with an insulating sealing layer 6b. This not only helps to increase the effective area for collision and friction between the liquid filler 5 and the positive and negative electrodes to a certain extent, improving the power generation performance of the device, but also avoids device leakage and reduces the risk of short circuits and / or electrochemical corrosion between the positive and negative electrodes.

[0492] In some embodiments of this application, specifically regarding scheme 1, referring to Figures 11, 12, or 13, the first support member 31 may include a porous support layer 31b. The porous support layer 31b is stacked between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2, forming a accommodating space 41 that connects the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. An insulating sealing layer 6b is provided on the outer surface of the porous support layer 31b. This further improves the support effect of the first support member 31 on the positive and negative electrodes, and also enables collision and friction between the liquid filler 5 and the positive and negative electrodes, realizing energy conversion in the molecular energy power generation device. It is understood that "the porous support layer 31b is stacked between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2" means that the porous support layer 31b is laid throughout the entire overlapping area of ​​the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2, forming a "sandwich" structure.

[0493] In some embodiments of this application, specifically for scheme 1, referring to Figures 6, 7, or 8, the first support member 31 may include a support frame 31a.

The spacing between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 can be adjusted by changing the thickness of the porous support frame 31a, thereby changing the volume of the accommodating space 41. Optionally, the thickness of the porous support frame 31 can be 2μm-2cm, or 50μm-1cm, or 100μm-5mm, or 400μm-1mm.

[0494] In some embodiments of this application, specifically for scheme 1, referring to Figures 11, 12, or 13, the first support member 31 may include a porous support layer 31b. The thickness of the porous support layer 31b can be 100nm-10cm, for example, 100nm, 200nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, 700nm, 800nm, 900nm, 1μm, 2μm, 5μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 15μm, 18μm, 20μm, 30μm, 40μm, 50μm, 60μm, 70μm, 80μm, 90μm, 1...

The spacing between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 can also be adjusted by changing the thickness of the porous support layer 31b, thereby changing the volume of the accommodating space 41. Optionally, the thickness of the porous support layer 31b can be 200μm-10cm, or alternatively 400μm-5cm, or even 800μm-2cm.

[0495] In some embodiments of this application, for example 1, referring to FIG6 or FIG11, the first support member 31 may include a porous support layer 31b and / or a porous support frame:

The cation exchange membrane 9a may face the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2; optionally, the cation exchange membrane 9a may face the negative electrode 2.

[0520] In some embodiments of this application, regarding scheme 2, referring to FIG23, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 may include a cation exchange membrane 9a, an anion exchange membrane 9b, and a bipolar membrane 9c, wherein the bipolar membrane 9c may be stacked between the cation exchange membrane 9a and the anion exchange membrane 9b. That is, the bipolar membrane 9c may be in direct contact with the cation exchange membrane 9a and the anion exchange membrane 9b. The cation exchange membrane 9a may face the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2, and the anode side of the bipolar membrane 9c may face the cation exchange membrane 9a or the anion exchange membrane 9b. Optionally, the cation exchange membrane 9a may face the negative electrode 2, and the anode side of the bipolar membrane 9c may face the anion exchange membrane 9b.

[0521] In some embodiments of this application, regarding scheme 2, referring to FIG24, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 may include a cation exchange membrane 9a, an anion exchange membrane 9b, and a bipolar membrane 9c. The bipolar membrane 9c is disposed between the cation exchange membrane 9a and the anion exchange membrane 9b. A second support member 32 is also provided between the bipolar membrane 9c and the cation exchange membrane 9a. Optionally, a porous support layer 32c may be provided. The bipolar membrane 9c, the cation exchange membrane 9a, and the porous support layer 32c form a receiving space 42d that connects the bipolar membrane 9c and the cation exchange membrane 9a. A second support member 32 is also provided between the bipolar membrane 9c and the anion exchange membrane 9b. Optionally, a porous support layer 32c may be provided. The bipolar membrane 9c, the anion exchange membrane 9b, and the porous support layer 32c form a receiving space 42e that connects the bipolar membrane 9c and the anion exchange membrane 9b.

Optionally, the cation exchange membrane 9a may face the negative electrode 2, and the anode side of the bipolar membrane 9c may face the anion exchange membrane 9b.

[0522] In some embodiments of this application, regarding embodiment 2, referring to Figures 22 or 24, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 includes at least a cation exchange membrane 9a and an anion exchange membrane 9b. The ion exchange membrane assembly 9 has containment spaces (e.g., 42c, or 42d and / or 42e). The liquid filler filling the containment spaces (e.g., 42c, or 42d and / or 42e) in the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 can be the same as or different from the liquid filler filling the containment spaces (42a and / or 42b) between the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2. Optionally, the liquid filler filling the containment spaces (e.g., 42c, or 42d and / or 42e) in the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 may be different from the liquid filler filling the containment spaces (42a and / or 42b) between the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2.

[0523] Taking anion (or cation) exchange membrane as the ion exchange membrane module 9 as an example, the liquid filler will collide and rub against the positive and negative electrodes due to the molecular thermal motion of the fluid, generating a potential difference between them. Driven by this potential difference, ions inside the liquid filler undergo directional migration, and anion (or cation) exchange occurs in the anion (or cation) exchange membrane and the space between it and the positive and negative electrodes, realizing the directional charge transfer between the positive and negative electrodes. The anode and cathode sides of the bipolar membrane have the same working mechanism as cation exchange membranes and anion exchange membranes. When cation exchange membranes, anion exchange membranes (and bipolar membranes) are combined and placed, a large number of ions are present between the ion exchange membrane module and the positive and negative electrodes respectively (the space between the anion exchange membrane and its corresponding electrode contains more cations, and the space between the cation exchange membrane and its corresponding electrode contains more anions). Taking an aqueous liquid filler as an example, the ion exchange membrane will also release cations and anions in an aqueous environment, increasing the ionic conductivity inside the device, reducing the internal resistance of the device, and increasing the ion transport function, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing the current.

[0524] In some embodiments of this application, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 can have one or more of the following technical effects: selectively permeate and separate ions (including existing ions and / or ions generated by collision and friction) in the liquid filler; reduce the ion transfer resistance in the device; and generate ionized ions in the aqueous solution, which further enhances the ion conductivity of the liquid filler.

[0525] In some embodiments of this application, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 may include a cation exchange membrane 9a, which may include one or more of the following: a perfluorosulfonic acid proton exchange membrane, a partially fluorinated sulfonated polymer membrane, a non-fluorinated sulfonated polymer membrane, and an inorganic / organic-inorganic composite proton exchange membrane. For example, the perfluorosulfonic acid proton exchange membrane may include, but is not limited to, a perfluorosulfonic acid / polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) copolymer. For example, the partially fluorinated sulfonated polymer membrane may include, but is not limited to, a polymer membrane formed by functionalizing a non-perfluorinated backbone (such as polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polyphenylene ether (PPO), polysulfone (PSF), or polystyrene (PS)) with sulfonic acid groups (-SO3H) (i.e., introducing -SO3H onto the benzene ring through a sulfonation reaction). For example, inorganic / organic-inorganic composite proton exchange membranes may include, but are not limited to, proton exchange membranes formed by combining inorganic proton-conducting components (such as ceramics, metal oxides, MOFs (metal-organic frameworks)) with organic polymers (such as perfluorosulfonic acid polymers (Nafion), sulfonated polyether ether ketones (SPEEK)).

[0526] In some embodiments of this application, the cation exchange membrane 9a may be a proton membrane.

[0527] In some embodiments of this application, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 may include an anion exchange membrane 9b, which may include a polyolefin-based anion exchange membrane, a polystyrene-based anion exchange membrane, a polyether-based anion exchange membrane, or a heterocyclic polymer-based anion exchange membrane. For example, the polyether-based anion exchange membrane may include, but is not limited to, a blend formed from polyetheretherketone and polyphenylene ether.

Optionally, referring to FIG11 or FIG12, the positive electrode friction layer 12 may be disposed on the side of the positive electrode current collector 11 facing the negative electrode 2, in which case the entire surface of the positive electrode friction layer 12 faces the negative electrode side. Alternatively, referring to Figures 14 or 16, the positive current collector 11 can be a mesh structure. The positive current collector 11 can be disposed on the side of the positive electrode friction layer 12 facing the negative electrode 2, with a portion of the surface of the positive electrode friction layer 12 facing the negative electrode side. The triboelectric charge density of the positive current collector 11 is greater than or equal to the triboelectric charge density of the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1. Distributing the current collector in a mesh form inside the friction layer helps to reduce the surface resistance of the friction layer while retaining gaps in contact between the liquid filler 5 and the friction layer.

[0529] In some embodiments of this application, for scheme 1 and / or scheme 2: the negative electrode 2 may further include a negative electrode friction layer 22, at least a portion of the surface of the negative electrode friction layer 22 facing the positive electrode side. Optionally, the triboelectric charge density of the negative electrode friction layer 22 is less than the triboelectric charge density of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2. Further, the triboelectric charge density of the negative electrode friction layer 22 may be less than the triboelectric charge density of the negative electrode current collector 21. Optionally, referring to FIG11 or FIG13, the negative electrode friction layer 22 may be disposed on the side of the negative electrode current collector 21 facing the positive electrode 1, in which case the entire surface of the negative electrode friction layer 22 faces the positive electrode side. Alternatively, referring to Figures 14 or 15, the negative electrode current collector 21 can be a mesh structure. The negative electrode current collector 21 can be disposed on the side of the negative electrode friction layer 22 facing the positive electrode 1, with a portion of the surface of the negative electrode friction layer 22 facing the negative electrode side. The triboelectric charge density of the negative electrode current collector 21 is less than or equal to the triboelectric charge density of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2. Distributing the current collector in a mesh form inside the friction layer helps to reduce the surface resistance of the friction layer while retaining gaps in contact between the liquid filler 5 and the friction layer.

Optionally, the positive electrode friction layer 12 can satisfy one or more of the following conditions: doped with a hydrophobic agent, doped with nanomaterials, or linked with hydrophobic groups, thereby facilitating a better hydrophobic surface for the positive electrode friction layer 12. It should be noted that the hydrophobic agent, the nanomaterials, the hydrophobic groups, and the corresponding hydrophobic modification process can be conventional choices in the art, as long as the surface of the positive electrode friction layer 12 is hydrophobic.

[0563] For example, taking a positive electrode 1 including a positive electrode friction layer 12, wherein the positive electrode friction layer 12 is located on the side of the positive electrode current collector 11 facing the negative electrode 2, the positive electrode current collector 11 is a copper foil, and the positive electrode friction layer 12 is a PA66 film, the preparation process and hydrophobic modification of the positive electrode friction layer 12 can be achieved, including but not limited to, through the following methods:

[0564] The preparation process of the positive electrode friction layer 12 may specifically include: preparing a PA66 solution with a mass concentration of approximately 2% using formic acid as a solvent. Weigh the required mass of PA66 powder and formic acid, pour the formic acid into a conical flask, and place it in a constant temperature water bath at approximately 60°C with a stirrer. Gradually add the PA66 powder and stir until the PA66 is fully dissolved for film preparation. Optionally, a PA66 film can be prepared first using the prepared solution and then fixed to one side of the positive electrode current collector; alternatively, the prepared solution can be poured into a beaker and a dip-coating machine can be used for film preparation. Fix the copper foil in a fixture and dip-coat it in the PA66 solution. For example, the dip-coating rate can be set to 20000 μm / s, the pulling rate to 500 μm / s, and there can be no dip-coating time. After pulling, place it on a hot plate and dry it at approximately 60°C for about 10 minutes. After drying, repeat the above pulling process twice. The prepared film is placed in a constant temperature drying oven for heat treatment, such as holding it at 180℃ for 1 hour.

[0565] The hydrophobic modification process of the positive electrode friction layer 12 may include: (1) mixing fluorinated acrylate polymer with deionized water and ultrasonically treating it to obtain a uniform dispersion. Optionally, nanoparticles, such as TiO2 nanoparticles, may be added to the dispersion; (2) immersing the prepared PA66 film (such as the positive electrode current collector 11 prepared by the dip-coating method on the surface of the current collector, which may be together with the PA66 film) into the dispersion to fully wet it; (3) transferring the “PA66 film + dispersion” into a hydrothermal reactor and sealing it for heat preservation. For example, it can be kept at 120°C for about 3 hours to perform hydrothermal self-assembly; (4) after the hydrothermal reactor is cooled, the fabric is taken out and dried and cured. For example, it can be done at about 90°C.

[0566] Alternatively, the hydrophobic modification process of the positive electrode friction layer 12 may include: (1) immersing the prepared PA66 membrane (e.g., prepared on the surface of the current collector by the dip-coating method, with the positive electrode current collector 11 along with the PA66 membrane) in an alkaline solution (e.g., NaOH solution) to achieve hydrolysis activation of the membrane surface; (2) repeatedly rinsing the hydrolyzed membrane with deionized water to remove residual alkali, and then drying it in a vacuum oven; (3) modifying the membrane surface with hydrophobic groups, such as transferring the dried membrane to a drying oven and immersing it in a polyacrylamide (PAM) solution with a concentration of 0.05% to 0.50%, and adsorbing a layer of PAM molecules with amino end groups onto the membrane surface through electrostatic self-assembly; (4) removing the modified membrane and allowing it to dry naturally in the air.

[0567] In some embodiments of this application, for scheme 1 and / or scheme 2: the negative electrode 2 may further include a negative electrode friction layer 22, the surface of which may be a hydrophobic surface. The liquid filler 5 may include water, such as water as the liquid filler, or water as the solvent and / or dispersion medium. Providing a hydrophobic surface can inhibit the liquid filler 5 from adhering to the friction layer surface, thereby reducing the risk of reduced effective contact area between the friction layer and the liquid filler 5, which could affect the molecular energy conversion efficiency.

[0568] In some embodiments, the negative electrode friction layer 22 can be prepared using a material with hydrophobic properties to form a hydrophobic surface. Alternatively, the material of the negative electrode friction layer 22 can be doped or modified to form a hydrophobic surface. Optionally, the negative electrode friction layer 22 can satisfy one or more of the following conditions: doped with a hydrophobic agent, doped with nanomaterials, or linked with hydrophobic groups, thereby improving the surface hydrophobicity of the negative electrode friction layer 22. It should be noted that the hydrophobic agent, the nanomaterials, the hydrophobic groups, and the corresponding hydrophobic modification process can be conventional choices in the art, as long as the surface of the negative electrode friction layer 22 is hydrophobic. Optionally, the contact angle of the hydrophobic surface can be greater than 90°, for example, it can be 90°, 95°, 100°, 105°, 110°, 115°, 120°, 125°, 130°, 135°, 140°, 145°, 150°, 155°, 160°, 165°, 170°, 175° or 180°, etc.; further optionally, the contact angle of the hydrophobic surface can be 120°-180°, and even more optionally, it can be 150°-180°.

[0569] For example, taking a negative electrode 2 including a negative electrode friction layer 22, wherein the negative electrode friction layer 22 is located on the side of the negative electrode current collector 21 facing the positive electrode 1, the negative electrode current collector 21 is a copper foil, and the negative electrode friction layer 22 is a PS film, the preparation process and hydrophobic modification of the negative electrode friction layer 22 can be achieved, including but not limited to, through the following methods:

[0570] The preparation process of the negative electrode friction layer 22 may specifically include: preparing a 4% (w / w) polystyrene (PS) solution using benzene as a solvent. Weigh the required mass of PS powder and benzene solvent, pour the benzene into an Erlenmeyer flask, and place it in a constant temperature water bath at approximately 60°C with a stirrer. Gradually add the PS powder and stir until the PS is fully dissolved. The prepared PS solution can be directly used for film preparation. Optionally, a PS film can be prepared first using the prepared solution, and then fixed to one side of the negative electrode current collector; alternatively, the prepared solution can be poured into a beaker, and a dip-coating machine can be used to prepare the film. The dip-coating process and heat treatment process of the PS film can be consistent with the process of the PA66 film described above.

[0571] The hydrophobic modification process of the negative electrode friction layer 22 may include: incorporating silane-modified nanoparticles into the PS film. For example, taking fluorosilane-modified nano-SiO2 as an example, it may include: (1) mixing fluorosilane coupling agent with ethanol to prepare a fluorinated modification solution; (2) mixing nano-SiO2 and the fluorinated modification solution, and using continuous stirring or other methods to fully graft the fluorosilane coupling agent onto the SiO2 surface; (3) placing the modified SiO2 mixture into a vacuum drying oven for drying to obtain hydrophobic modified SiO2; (4) grinding and refining the hydrophobic modified SiO2, and then doping it into the PS solution to form a film.

[0572] Alternatively, the hydrophobic modification process of the negative electrode friction layer 22 may include: (1) mixing the fluorinated acrylate polymer with deionized water and ultrasonically treating it to obtain a uniform dispersion.

[0647] In a second aspect of this application, a method for preparing the molecular energy power generation device of the first aspect of this application is provided, comprising:

[0648] A support is provided between the positive and negative electrodes, the positive electrode is insulated from the negative electrode, and the support, the positive electrode, and the negative electrode enclose a receiving space; a liquid filler is filled into the receiving space.

[0649] For ease of understanding, the following detailed explanation will use the methods for preparing molecular energy power generation devices according to schemes 1 and 2 as examples:

[0650] Regarding Scheme 1, referring to Figure 4, it includes: a first support member 31 is disposed between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2, forming a receiving space 41 connecting the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2; a liquid filler 5 is filled into the receiving space 41, making the liquid filler 5 contact the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2. The positive electrode 1 includes a positive current collector 11, and the negative electrode 2 includes a negative current collector 21. The positive current collector 11 and the negative current collector 21 are made of the same material. The triboelectric charge density on at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 is greater than the triboelectric charge density on the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1. The positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are insulated from each other.

[0651] Regarding scheme 2, referring to Figure 18, it includes: an ion exchange membrane assembly 9 disposed between the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2; a second support member 32 disposed between the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and the positive electrode 1, such that the positive electrode 1, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, and the second support member 32 form a receiving space 42a communicating between the positive electrode 1 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9; and a second support member 32 disposed between the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and the negative electrode 2, such that the negative electrode 2, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, and the second support member 32 form a receiving space 42b communicating between the negative electrode 2 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9. The positive electrode 1 includes a positive current collector 11, and the negative electrode 2 includes a negative current collector 21. The positive current collector 11 and the negative current collector 21 are made of the same material. The triboelectric charge density of at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode 1 facing the negative electrode 2 is greater than the triboelectric charge density of the surface of the negative electrode 2 facing the positive electrode 1. The positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 are insulated.

[0652] In some embodiments, the method for fabricating a molecular energy power generation device may further include: providing an insulating sealing layer 6b to seal the accommodating space and / or the outer surface of the support member.

[0653] In some embodiments, for scheme 1, the first support member 31 can be abutted against one of the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 to form a receiving space 41. After the liquid filler 5 is added to the receiving space 41, the other of the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 can be abutted against the first support member 31 to seal the receiving space 41.

[0654] In some embodiments, for scheme 1, the first support member 31, the positive electrode 1, and the negative electrode 2 can first enclose a receiving space 41. A feeding port is reserved in a local area between the first support member 31 and the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2. After the liquid filler 5 is added to the receiving space 41, the positive electrode 1 and / or the negative electrode 2 in the area where the feeding port is located abuts against the first support member 31 to seal the receiving space 41.

[0655] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 18, for scheme 2, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 and the second support 32 can be stacked together in the order of "positive electrode 1 / second support 32 / ion exchange membrane assembly 9 / second support 32 / negative electrode 2", and injection needles are inserted between the positive electrode 1 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, and between the negative electrode 2 and the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, respectively. The stacked positive and negative electrode sheets, the second support 32, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, and the needles are fixed with clamps, and an insulating sealing layer 6b is used to seal the upper and lower surfaces and sides of the device edges to prevent liquid leakage. After sealing, different amounts of different liquids are drawn up with a syringe and injected into each containing space. After the needles have been injected with liquid, they are pulled out in sequence, and the outside of the device is gently pressed to fill the entire space with liquid and remove excess air. The needle holes are then sealed.

[0656] For example, referring to Figure 25, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9 may include a cation exchange membrane 9a and an anion exchange membrane 9b, which can be stacked together in the order of "positive electrode 1 / second support 32 / anion exchange membrane 9b / second support 32 / cation exchange membrane 9a / second support 32 / negative electrode 2". Injection needles are inserted between the positive electrode 1 and the cation exchange membrane 9a, between the cation exchange membrane 9a and the anion exchange membrane 9b, and between the negative electrode 2 and the anion exchange membrane 9b. The stacked positive and negative electrode sheets, the second support 32, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, and the needles are fixed with clamps. An insulating sealing layer 6b is used to seal the upper and lower surfaces and sides of the device edges to prevent liquid leakage. After sealing, different amounts of different liquids are drawn up with a syringe and injected into each containing space. After the needles have been injected in sequence, the outside of the device is gently pressed to fill the entire space with liquid and remove excess air, and then the needle holes are sealed. Understandably, in Scheme 2, by setting up the ion exchange membrane and using the second support, the positive and negative electrodes can be separated into multiple independent accommodating spaces in the thickness direction of the device. In actual operation, when assembling the molecular energy power generation device, the size of the ion exchange membrane can be larger than the size of the positive and negative electrodes, and the ion exchange membrane can be extended to the outside of the current collector. Thus, even if the device edge is poorly sealed and there is a leakage problem, it is still beneficial for the liquid filler to penetrate to the outside and will not flow to other liquid injection areas in each layer and affect each other.

[0657] In some embodiments, for scheme 1, the first support member 31 can be a support frame 31a (such as a dense support frame or a porous support frame) or a porous support layer 31b. In this case, the first support member 31 can first be abutted against the positive electrode 1 and the negative electrode 2 to form a receiving space 41. Then, an insulating sealing layer 6b is formed on the outer surface of the first support member 31 for fixation and preliminary sealing. When forming the insulating sealing layer 6b, a feeding port is reserved in a local area between the first support member 31 and the positive electrode 1 or the negative electrode 2. The liquid filler 5 is added to the receiving space 41 through the feeding port and then the feeding port is completely sealed.

[0658] In some embodiments, for scheme 2, the second support member 32 can adopt protrusions (including a first protrusion 32a and / or a second protrusion 32b) and / or a porous support layer 32c. In this case, the second support member 32 can be first abutted against the positive electrode 1, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, and the negative electrode 2 in the corresponding order to form a corresponding receiving space, and the following operations are performed in sequence: an injection needle is inserted into the corresponding receiving space, the stacked positive and negative electrode sheets, the second support member 32, the ion exchange membrane assembly 9, and the needle are fixed with a clamp, and an insulating sealing layer 6b is used to seal the upper and lower surfaces and sides of the device edges to prevent liquid leakage. After sealing, subsequent operations are performed.

[0659] In some embodiments of this application, regarding solution 1:

[0660] A positive electrode 1 can be obtained by first forming a positive electrode friction layer 12 on the positive electrode current collector 11, and then using a negative electrode current collector 21 as the negative electrode 2. A first support member 31 forms a receiving space 41 between the positive electrode friction layer 12 and the negative electrode current collector 21. It is understood that in this structure, the negative electrode current collector 21 is a dense sheet structure (such as copper foil). Alternatively,

[0661] The positive current collector 11 can be a mesh structure (such as a copper mesh), and the negative current collector 21 can be a dense sheet structure (such as a copper foil).

It is understood that in this structure, the positive electrode current collector 11 is a dense sheet structure (such as copper foil). Alternatively,

[0663] The negative electrode current collector 21 can be a mesh structure (such as a copper mesh), and the positive electrode current collector 11 can be a dense sheet structure (such as a copper foil). The negative electrode current collector 21 can be placed on one side of the negative electrode friction layer 22 to obtain the negative electrode 2, and the positive electrode current collector 11 can be used as the positive electrode 1. The first support member 31 forms a receiving space 41 between the positive electrode current collector 11 and the negative electrode current collector 21. Alternatively,

[0664] A positive electrode friction layer 12 can be formed on the positive electrode current collector 11 to obtain the positive electrode 1, and a negative electrode friction layer 22 can be formed on the negative electrode current collector 21 to obtain the negative electrode 2. A receiving space 41 can then be formed between the positive electrode friction layer 12 and the negative electrode friction layer 22 using the first support member 31. Alternatively,

[0665] Both the positive current collector 11 and the negative current collector 21 can be mesh structures (such as copper mesh). The positive current collector 11 can be placed on one side of the positive electrode friction layer 12 to obtain the positive electrode 1, and the negative current collector 21 can be placed on one side of the negative electrode friction layer 22 to obtain the negative electrode 2. The first support member 31 forms a receiving space 41 between the positive current collector 11 and the negative current collector 21.
