Advanced oxygen-electrode-supported solid oxide electrochemical cells with Sr(Ti,Fe)O_3–δ-based fuel electrodes for electricity generation and hydrogen production

Journal Article Zhang, Shan-Lin; Wang, Hongqian; Yang, Tianrang; ... - Journal of Materials Chemistry. A

Sr(Ti_0.3Fe_0.7)O_3–δ (STF) and the associated exsolution electrodes Sr_0.95(Ti_0.3Fe_0.63Ru_0.07)O_3–δ (STFR), or Sr_0.95(Ti_0.3Fe_0.63Ni_0.07)O_3–δ (STFN) are alternatives to Ni-based cermet fuel electrodes for solid oxide electrochemical cells (SOCs). They can provide improved tolerance to redox cycling and fuel impurities, and may allow direct operation with hydrocarbon fuels. However, such perovskite-oxide-based electrodes present processing challenges for co-sintering with thin electrolytes to make fuel electrode supported SOCs. Thus, they have been mostly limited to electrolyte-supported SOCs. Here, we report the first example of the application of perovskite oxide fuel electrodes in novel oxygen electrode supported SOCs (OESCs) with thin YSZ electrolytes, and demonstrate their excellentmore »« less

The polarization of porous platinum electrodes in a solid-electrolyte cell in oxygen atmosphere

Journal Article Glumov, M - Sov. Electrochem. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)

The overvoltage of porous platinum electrodes in contact with 0.9 ZrO/sub 2/-0.1 Y/sub 2/0/sub 3/ electrolyte was studied as a function of current density and oxygen pressure in an atmosphere of free oxygen. The porous electrodes were prepared by baking a layer of platinum paste with an original metal grain size of about 1 micrometer onto the ground surfaces of plates of the electrolyte, in air at 1623degreeK. The analysis only provides evidence for diffusion limitations with respect to electrons and holes in the electrolyte, and shows that marked limitations are not present for the transfer reaction, and for themore »« less
Cost-Reducing Methods for Thin Film Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

Journal Article Glass, R - Materials Research Society Bulletin

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has developed an improved method for fabrication of a thin film Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) using a colloidal technique. Dense, crack-free, yttria-stabilized-zirconia (YSZ) films of up to 100 microns thick were deposited on nickel oxide/YSZ substrates and porous La{sub 0.85}Sr{sub 0.15}MnO{sub 3} (LSM) substrates. The new technique was also used to deposit a compositionally-graded film of YSZ and Ce{sub 0.8}Y{sub 0.2}O{sub 2} (CYO), which is useful for matching the thermal expansion coefficient to an adjacent layer. The SOFC is a solid-state electrochemical device that converts the chemical energy of fuel directly into electricity. Itsmore »« less
