Integrated seal for high-temperature electrochemical device

Tucker, Michael C; Jacobson, Craig P

Title: Integrated seal for high-temperature electrochemical device

Abstract

The present invention provides electrochemical device structures having integrated seals, and methods of fabricating them. According to various embodiments the structures include a thin, supported electrolyte film with the electrolyte sealed to the support. The perimeter of the support is self-sealed during fabrication. The perimeter can then be independently sealed to a manifold or other device, e.g., via an external seal. According to various embodiments, the external seal does not contact the electrolyte, thereby eliminating the restrictions on the sealing method and materials imposed by sealing against the electrolyte.

Multilayer compressive seal for sealing in high temperature devices

Patent Chou, Yeong-Shyung [Richland, WA]; Stevenson, Jeffry W [Richland, WA]

A mica based compressive seal has been developed exhibiting superior thermal cycle stability when compared to other compressive seals known in the art. The seal is composed of compliant glass or metal interlayers and a sealing (gasket) member layer composed of mica that is infiltrated with a glass forming material, which effectively reduces leaks within the seal. The compressive seal shows approximately a 100-fold reduction in leak rates compared with previously developed hybrid seals after from 10 to about 40 thermal cycles under a compressive stress of from 50 psi to 100 psi at temperatures in the range from 600.degree.more » C. to about 850.degree. C. « less

High temperature sealed electrochemical cell

Patent Valentin Chung, Brice Hoani; Burke, Paul J.; Sadoway, Donald R.

A cell for high temperature electrochemical reactions is provided. The cell includes a container, at least a portion of the container acting as a first electrode. An extension tube has a first end and a second end, the extension tube coupled to the container at the second end forming a conduit from the container to said first end. A second electrode is positioned in the container and extends out of the container via the conduit. A seal is positioned proximate the first end of the extension tube, for sealing the cell.

Multi-layer seal for electrochemical devices

Patent Chou, Yeong-Shyung [Richland, WA]; Meinhardt, Kerry D [Kennewick, WA]; Stevenson, Jeffry W [Richland, WA]

Multi-layer seals are provided that find advantageous use for reducing leakage of gases between adjacent components of electrochemical devices. Multi-layer seals of the invention include a gasket body defining first and second opposing surfaces and a compliant interlayer positioned adjacent each of the first and second surfaces. Also provided are methods for making and using the multi-layer seals, and electrochemical devices including said seals.

Glass composition and process for sealing void spaces in electrochemical devices

Patent Meinhardt, Kerry D [Richland, WA]; Kirby, Brent W [Kennewick, WA]

A glass foaming material and method are disclosed for filling void spaces in electrochemical devices. The glass material includes a reagent that foams at a temperature above the softening point of the glass. Expansion of the glass fills void spaces including by-pass and tolerance channels of electrochemical devices. In addition, cassette to cassette seals can also be formed while channels and other void spaces are filled, reducing the number of processing steps needed.
