The charge/discharge characteristics were evaluated focusing on the mixing ratio of the active material, conductive additive, electrolyte, and electrode thickness that constitute the slurry electrode for semi-solid redox flow batteries in order to explore appropriate conditions for cell performance. It was found that the electrochemical reaction in the slurry electrode was biased to the current collector. It was also shown that increase in the amount of conductive additive leads to less overpotential, suggesting better electron transport pass established in the slurry electrode, while increase in the amount of active material deteriorated capacity retention presumably due to the volume change under the charge and discharge cycle.
