Abstract

An electrode is attached to a solid electrolyte material by: (1) mixing a metallic nickel component and 1 wt% to 10 wt% of yttria stabilized zirconia having particle diameters up to 3 micrometers with an organic binder solution to form a slurry, (2) applying the slurry to a solid zirconia electrolyte material, (3) heating the slurry to drive off the organic binder and form a porous layer of metallic nickel substantially surrounded and separated by the zirconia particles, and (4) electro-chemical vapor depositing a skeletal structure between and around the metallic nickel and the zirconia particles where the metallic nickel components do not substantially sinter to each other, yet the layer remains porous. 4 figs.

Method of making composition suitable for use as inert electrode having good electrical conductivity and mechanical properties

Patent Ray, S P; Rapp, R A

An improved inert electrode composition is suitable for use as an inert electrode in the production of metals such as aluminum by the electrolytic reduction of metal oxide or metal salt dissolved in a molten salt bath. The composition comprises one or more metals or metal alloys and metal compounds which may include oxides of the metals comprising the alloy. The alloy and metal compounds are interwoven in a network which provides improved electrical conductivity and mechanical strength while preserving the level of chemical inertness necessary for such an electrode to function satisfactorily. 8 figs.
Method of making sulfur tolerant composite cermet electrodes for solid oxide electrochemical cells

Patent Isenberg, Arnold O [Pittsburgh, PA]

An electrochemical apparatus is made containing an exterior electorde bonded to the exterior of a tubular, solid, oxygen ion conducting electrolyte where the electrolyte is also in contact with an interior electrode, said exterior electrode comprising particles of an electronic conductor contacting the electrolyte, where a ceramic metal oxide coating partially surrounds the particles and is bonded to the electrolyte, and where a coating of an ionic-electronic conductive material is attached to the ceramic metal oxide coating and to the exposed portions of the particles.
