Abstract
A method is provided to optimize the surface of a carbon electrode for flow battery. A reaction solution is prepared as containing a requested ratio of functional group. After spraying the reaction solution on the carbon electrode, a number of related parameters of an atmospheric plasma are set for activation the carbon electrode. Thus, the functional group is covalently bonded on the surface of the carbon electrode according to requirement. Thereby, an accurate control of the type and number of the functional group bonded on the surface of the carbon electrode is achieved with the stability and performance of flow battery further enhanced.
