A flow battery, or redox flow battery (after reduction–oxidation), is a type of electrochemical cell where chemical energy is provided by two chemical components dissolved in liquids contained within the system and separated by a membrane. Ion exchange (accompanied by flow of electric current) occurs through the membrane while both liquids circulate in their own respective space. Cell voltage is chemically determined by the Nernst equation and ranges, in practical applications, from 1.0 to 2.2 volts.

The application relates to the technical field of all-vanadium redox flow batteries, and discloses an integrated electrode plate and a preparation method and application thereof, which comprises the following steps: mixing and calcining a metal organic framework material and polyvinylpyrrolidone to obtain a porous carbon material; uniformly melting and mixing the porous carbon material, resin and conductive carbon material, and performing die forming to obtain a modified bipolar plate; using silver-coated copper powder as a conductive filler, and using epoxy modified acrylic resin as an organic carrier to prepare ultraviolet light curing silver-coated copper conductive adhesive; and bonding the electrode and the modified bipolar plate through ultraviolet light curing to prepare the integrated electrode plate. The porous carbon is obtained by using a polyvinylpyrrolidone-assisted limited carbonization method, the conductivity of the bipolar plate is improved, epoxy modified acrylic resin is used as the organic carrier, the silver-coated copper powder is uniformly distributed in the organic carrier, the conductivity of the conductive adhesive is improved, and the integrated electrode plate improves the performance of the flow battery.
