LSGM based SOFCs suffer from performance degradation during operation, especially with Ni-containing anodes. One of the causes for performance degradation in an LSGM-based SOFC system was investigated. XRD and SEM studies coupled with EDS measurements revealed that formation of an insulating LaNiO3layer is possible in such cells depending on the processing conditions. This ionic insulator phase forms a layer on the anode side of the LSGM and may block oxygen ion diffusion through electrolyte. A possible solution to hinder the formation of LaNiO3phase is the use of doped ceria (XDC; where X = La or Sm) as a protective layer with proper processing route. Cross-sectional EDS analyses showed that LDC was a very effective protection layer for LSGM, while SDC was ineffective. An inexpensive and feasible fabrication procedure for SOFC assembly was demonstrated with a thin (1-5 µm) and dense protective layer-electrolyte couple coated onto the anode. |
