Abstract

The transport properties of membranes used in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB) are fundamental in battery performance. High proton conductivity and low vanadium ion permeability must be achieved to achieve high battery performance. However, there is a trade-off relationship between proton conductivity and vanadium ion permeability. So, solving this trade-off relationship is crucial in VRFB development. Also, maintaining high coulombic efficiency, voltage efficiency, and energy efficiency is essential for high-performing VRFB. Recently, various attempts have been made, primarily on composite membranes and SPEEK membranes, to overcome the existing limit of Nafion membranes. VRFB is an essential class of rechargeable battery in composite membranes reviewed here.

VRFB에 사용되는 막의 수송 능력은 배터리 성능에 필수적인 요소이다. 탁월한 배터리 성능을 위해서는 높은 양성자 전도도와 낮은 바나듐 이온 투과도가 달성되어야 한다. 하지만 양성자 전도도와 바나듐 이온 투과도 사이에는 상충관계가 존재한다. 따라서 이 상충관계를 해결하는 것이 VRFB의 발전에 필수적이다. 또한 높은 쿨롱 효율, 전압 효율 및 에너지효율을 유지하는 것이 고성능 VRFB를 위해 필수적이다. 최근 복합막과 SPEEK 막을 중심으로 나피온 막의 기존 한계를 극복하기 위한 다양한 시도가 이루어지고 있다. VRFB은 이 논문에서 검토하는 복합막에서 충전식 배터리의 필수 등급이다.
