Study of the effect of cobalt content on the stability of nickel composite anode materials for solid oxide fuel cells in high humidity

In this work, the effect of humidity on the microstructural degradation of nickel-based metal– ceramic composite materials containing 0, 10, 20, 40, and 60 wt.% of cobalt in the metallic phase was investigated. The increase in cobalt concentration was found to have a beneficial effect on the stability of the microstructure and the long-term electrical conductivity, indicating the perspective of cobalt alloying as an approach to improve the performance and durability of SOFC anodes.

Inkjet 3D printing of a YSZ-based ceramic interconnect for microtubular solid oxide fuel cells

A new design of the interconnect for tubular solid oxide fuel cells was presented. The functions of electrical connection and mechanical/gas distribution were separated in this interconnect. The electrical connection of the elements was provided by a separate metal wire laid around the frame. The paste composition and parameters for inkjet 3D printing, as well as the sintering regime, were optimized, enabling the production of dense samples with high microhardness.

New cathode material La2/3Cu3Ti4 – xFexO12 – δ for solid oxide fuel cell: Synthesis and electrical conductivity

Copper lanthanum titanate La2/3Cu3Ti4−xFexO12−δ x = 0–1 was doped with Fe3+ cations. The diagram of the dependence of the tolerance factor on the relative electronegativity of cations for all studied compositions was represented. It was shown that all the compositions exist in the region of existence of distorted perovskite. X-ray diffraction and X-ray phase analysis methods established the region of existence of solid solutions of La2/3Cu3Ti4−xFexO12−δ obtained by ceramic technology, which was 0 ⩽ x ⩽ 0.4.
