Electrical Properties Of Indium And Yttrium-Doped Barium Cerate-Based Compounds For Use As Ceramic Fuel Cell Electrolytes
The aim of this work is to compare the electrical properties of BaCe0.85Y0.15O3−δ (BCY15), BaCe0.70In0.30O3−δ (BCI30) and a composite material consisting of 30%vol. BCY15 and 70%vol. Ce0.85Y0.15O2−δ (YDC15). BCY15 and YDC15 were synthesized by co-precipitation, whereas BCI30 was obtained using the s...

description | The aim of this work is to compare the electrical properties of BaCe0.85Y0.15O3−δ (BCY15), BaCe0.70In0.30O3−δ (BCI30) and a composite material consisting of 30%vol. BCY15 and 70%vol. Ce0.85Y0.15O2−δ (YDC15). BCY15 and YDC15 were synthesized by co-precipitation, whereas BCI30 was obtained using the solid-state reaction method. Pellets were initially formed from powders at 5 MPa, after which they were isostatically pressed at 250 MPa and sintered at 1500°C. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to determine the electrical properties of the samples in both air (pO2 = 0.021 MPa) and Ar-5%H2 atmospheres. In the temperature range 200-400°C in air atmosphere the highest conductivity values were determined for BCY15 (5,22·10−5 − 2.74·10−3 S/cm). On the other hand, the electrical conductivity values obtained for Y70B30 in both atmospheres between 200 and 550°C are in the order of magnitude of 10−7 − 10−3 S/cm. Consequently, it can be concluded that the compounds exhibit significant H+ and O2− electrical conductivity at temperatures above 500°C, which indicates the possibility for their potential use as ceramic fuel cell electrolytes. |
