OSTI ID:6305381
Several results regarding the effect of hydrogen on lanthanum chromite were determined. Thermally-activated diffusion of hydrogen through La(Mg)CrO/sub 3/ was found with a high activation energy. It was found that its electrical conductivity drops drastically, especially at low temperature, after exposure to hydrogen at high temperature. Also, the curvature of most of the conductivity plots, as well as the inability to observe the Hall effect, lends support to the proposal by Karim and Aldred that the small-polaron model which predicts thermally activated mobility is applicable to doped lanthanum chromite. From differential thermal analysis an apparent absorption of hydrogen near 300/sup 0/C was noticed. Upon cooling the lanthanum chromite in hydrogen and subsequently reheating it in air, desorption occurred near 170/sup 0/C. The immediate purpose of this study was to determine whether hydrogen has a deleterious effect on lanthanum chromite in solid oxide fuel cells.
