dc.description.abstract | Development of electrodes with high electrocatalytic activity and stability is essential for solving problems that still restrict the extensive application of vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs). Here, we designed a novel negative electrode with superior electrocatalytic activity by tailoring nitrogen functional groups, such as newly formed nitro and pyridinic-N transformed to pyridonic-N, from the prenitrogen-doped electrode. It was experimentally confirmed that an electrode with pyridonic-N and nitro fuctional groups (tailored nitrogen-doped graphite felt, TNGF) has superior electrocatalytic acivity with enhanced electron and mass transfer. Density functional theory calulations demonstrated the pyridonic-N and nitro functional groups promoted the adsorption, charge transfer, and bond formation with the vanadium species, which is consistent with expermental results. In addition, the V2./V3. redox reaction mechanism on pyridonic-N and nitro functional groups was estabilised based on density functional theory (DFT) results. When TNGF was applied to a VRFB, it enabled enhanced-electrolyte utilization and energy efficiencies (EE) of 57.9% and 64.6%, respectively, at a current density of 250 mA cm'. These results are 18.6% and 8.9% higher than those of VRFB with electrode containing graphitic-N and pyridinicN groups. Interestingly, TNGF-based VRFB still operated with an EE of 59% at a high current density of 300 mA cm'. The TNGF-based VRFB exhibited stable cycling performance without noticeable decay of EE over 450 charge-discharge cycles at a current density of 250 mA cm-2. The results of this study suggest that introducing pyridonic-N and nitro groups on the electrode is effective for improving the electrochemical performance of VRFBs.(c) 2022 Science Press and Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
