And (3) performing a charge-discharge cycle test at 1C between 3.0 and 4.2V, circulating for 50 times, and calculating the charge-discharge efficiency.
The charge-discharge efficiency refers to the ratio of the capacity obtained by discharging divided by the capacity provided by the previous charging step. In other words, the charge-discharge efficiency, CEfficiency of=Dn+1/CnX 100%, where D is the discharge capacity, C is the charge capacity, and n is the number of cycles. The charge and discharge efficiency is shown in table 3.
Table 3: charge-discharge efficiency meter
The battery diaphragm of the zinc-bromine flow battery prepared by the invention has longitudinal tensile strength of more than 168MPa and thermal shrinkage of less than 1.2 percent, and has excellent mechanical properties. The zinc-bromine flow battery can be charged and discharged for a long time with large capacity, and the charging and discharging efficiency is high. Moreover, the battery diaphragm also has higher conductivity. The higher the conductivity, the lower the resistance, which means that the barrier ability of the separator to the flow of electrons is smaller, and the electrochemical performance of the separator is more excellent.
