ELECTRODE STRUCTURE INCLUDING ELECTRODE FIBER HAVING HIGHER DENSITY OF VERTICAL TOWS TO PARALLEL TOWS, FLOW BATTERY STACK INCLUDING THE SAME, AND SEALING STRUCTURE INCLUDING SEALING GASKETS CONNECTED BY SEALING WIRE

An electrode structure of a flow battery. A density of the vertical tow in the electrode fiber is larger than the density of the parallel tow. In the electrode fiber per unit volume, the quantity ratio of the vertical tow to the parallel tow is at least 6:4. The electrode structure includes an odd number of layers of the electrode fibers, and the porosity of other layers is larger than that of the center layer. The electrode structure includes the vertical tows, so that, the contact area between the outer surface of the electrode and the adjacent component is increased and the contact resistance is reduced; the electrode has good mechanical properties; the contact resistance of such structure is reduced by 30%-50%; and the layers of the electrode have different thickness depending on the porosity. After compression, the layers with optimized thickness have a consistent porosity.
