Developing high-performance membranes for vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) faces significant challenges. This study explores poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) as a membrane matrix for VRFBs due to its cost-effectiveness, excellent membrane-forming properties, and strong tensile resistance.
In redox flow batteries, ion exchange membranes made of polysulfone or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) are employed. These plastics have good ion exchange capacity and high chemical stability, making them an ideal usage in aggressive electrolytes. The membranes must also have high mechanical strength to withstand fluid flow in the battery.
Redox flow batteries (RFBs) are promising electrochemical energy storage systems, offering vast potential for large-scale applications. Their unique configuration allows energy and power to be decoupled, making them highly scalable and flexible in design.
Flow battery (FB) is nowadays one of the most suited energy storage technologies for large-scale stationary energy storage, which plays a vital role in accelerating the wide deployment of renewable energies. FBs achieve the energy conversion by reversible redox reactions of flowing active species at the positive and negative sides.
In redox flow batteries, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is employed as it contributes not only to good adhesion but also to stabilization of the electrodes. Separators are films or membranes placed between the electrodes in a battery to prevent short circuits.
