Abstract
Disclosed in the invention is a zinc-iodine battery structure, which includes a housing, a cavity is formed in the housing, and a cation exchange membrane for dividing the cavity into two parts is disposed in a middle of the cavity; a glass fiber component for protecting the cation exchange membrane is disposed at a negative output end; a graphite felt impregnated with a ZnIsolution is disposed on an outside of the glass fiber component; and the graphite felt of the negative output end is coated with Bi powder, and a graphite felt of a positive output end is coated with Sm powder. Carbon plates serving as current leading-out channels of a battery are disposed on outsides of the graphite felts; and a return flow channel is disposed between the two graphite felts. By using a homogeneous cation exchange membrane with a low electrical resistance, a problem of serious self-discharging is overcome; and by using a flow battery with an open flow system, a problem of a change in pressure caused by a change in volume during charging and discharging is effectively solved. By disposing glass fiber products on two sides of the cation exchange membrane, a dendritic crystal generated during charging is unable to reach a separator, so that short circuit caused by puncture of the separator is avoided.
