Popis: | In this work, the effect of the content of CuO, ZnO, Al2O3, NiO, Fe2O3, Co3O4 and MoO3 additives on the sinterability, microstructure, and electrical properties of La0.9Sr0.1ScO3-α proton-conducting oxide in a form of tubes produced by slip casting is studied. It is shown that the relative density of La0.9Sr0.1ScO3-α tubes without sintering aids is ~86%. The introduction of 1.0 wt % ZnO, Al2O3, NiO or 0.5 ÷ 1.0 wt % Co3O4 leads to a relative density of ceramics higher than 95%. Among dense ceramic tubes, LSS +0.5 wt % Co3O4 has the highest electrical conductivity. The introduction of 1 wt % Fe2O3 additive does not affect the sinterability of the LSS, and 1 wt % CuO and MoO3 inhibits LSS sintering. Single protonic ceramic fuel cells based on LSS +0.5 wt % Co3O4 and LSS +1.0 wt % NiO supporting electrolyte tubes with a thickness of 300 μm are studied. The maximum power density of about 30 mW/cm2 at 800 °C was obtained for a cell based on LSS +0.5 wt % Co3O4 using wet hydrogen as fuel and air as an oxidizing gas. |
