The physical and mechanical properties, as well as the microstructure of the NiO/SDC composites and the Ni/SDC cermets were investigated. It is shown that the sintedng temperature of the NiO/SDC composites and NiO content plays an important role in determining the microstructure and properties of the NiO/SDC composites, which, in turn, influences the microstructure, electrical conductivity, and mechanical properties of the Ni/SDC cermets. The present study demonstrated that composition and tprocess parameters must be appropriately selected to optimize the microstructure and the properties of NiO/SDC materials for solid oxide fuel cell applications.展开更多

NiO-SDC powders were synthesized by a glycine-nitrate method, ultrasonically mixed with PS spheres in ethanol, dried and then pressed into green pellets. The pellets were sintered to yield porous NiO-SDC ceramics. The effects of the sintering temperature on the microstructure and mechanical strength of the ceramics were investigated. NiO-SDC ceramics sintered at 1200 and 1350℃ have interconnected pore structures and high compression strength. When single cells were fabricated using porous NiO-SDC ceramics as anode-supported layers, the peak power density of the cells at 600℃ was 333 and 353 mW.cm-2 for ceramics sintered at 1200 and 1350℃, respectively. The results indicated that these porous ceramic materials are promising for anode substrates for solid oxide fuel cells.展开更多
