Carbonaceous materials have been identified as the best candidates for both the negative and positive half-cells in vanadium flow batteries (VRFB) [12, 13, 14] as they exhibit excellent catalytic activity, good conductivity, good chemical and mechanical stabilities, and are. . Carbonaceous materials have been identified as the best candidates for both the negative and positive half-cells in vanadium flow batteries (VRFB) [12, 13, 14] as they exhibit excellent catalytic activity, good conductivity, good chemical and mechanical stabilities, and are. . It is well known that the performance of a flow battery depends, among other factors, on the properties of the electrodes, which are generally composed of graphite felt (GF). In this work, thermal, chemical and plasma treatments have been employed to modify the surface of the graphite felt to. . Vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) is a highly suitable technology for energy storage and conversion in the application of decoupling energy and power generation. However, the sluggish reaction kinetics of redox couples is one of the bottlenecks hindering the commercialization of VFFBs.
