The invention discloses a water-based positive 
electrode polymer, a preparation method thereof and a 
small molecule flow battery system, the water-based positive 
electrode polymer is synthesized by free 
radical polymerization of 2-methyl-2-
acrylic acid-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-4-
piperidine methyl ester (TEMPMA), 3-
sulfonic acid propyl 
potassium methacrylate (SMPS) and 2-methyl-2-propylene-1-
sodium sulfonate (SMAS), and the water-based positive 
electrode polymer is obtained by 
polymerization of the free 
radical polymerization of 2-methyl-2-
acrylic acid-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-4-
piperidine methyl ester (TEMPMA), 3-
sulfonic acid propyl 
potassium methacrylate (SMPS) and 2-methyl-2-propylene-1-
sodium sulfonate (SMAS). The micromolecule 
flow battery system comprises the aqueous positive electrode polymer and 1, 1-dimethyl-4, 4-dipyridyl dichloride. The polymer is used as an 
electrode material, on one hand, the increase of molecular weight can effectively reduce cross 
contamination among active substances, and decrease of 
battery capacity is reduced; and on the other hand, the 
porous membrane with lower cost can be directly used, so that the use cost is reduced. By adopting the polymer 
electrolyte with 
high concentration and low 
viscosity, the 
concentration polarization phenomenon can be inhibited, the stability of the battery is improved, the 
flow battery with the advantages that the active material is easy to prepare, the capacity is high, the safety performance is high, the charge-
discharge performance is stable and the like is obtained, and the large-scale 
energy storage requirement is met.
