Phase composition, surface and fracture morphologies of the specimen were characterized by using XRD and SEM, respectively. Ionic conduction was researched by gas concentration cell, the performance of hydrogen-air fuel cell was measured in the temperature range of 600～1000 ℃, and compared them with those of BaCe_(0.8)Eu_(0.2)O_(3-α) and Ba_(0.98)Ce_(0.8)Eu_(0.2)O_(3-α). The results indicate that Ba_(1.03)Ce_(0.8)Eu_(0.2)O_(3-α) is a single-phase perovskite-type orthorhombic system. It is a pure proton conductor in the temperature range of 600～1000 ℃ in hydrogen atmosphere, and its proton conduction is superior to that of BaCe_(0.8)Eu_(0.2)O_(3-α) and Ba_(0.98)Ce_(0.8)Eu_(0.2)O_(3-α). It is a mixed conductor of oxide ion and electron hole in oxygen atmosphere. At 1000 ℃, the performance of the fuel cell in which Ba_(1.03)Ce_(0.8)Eu_(0.2)O_(3-α) as electrolyte is higher than that of BaCe_(0.8)Eu_(0.2)O_(3-α) or Ba_(0.98)Ce_(0.8)Eu_(0.2)O_(3-α).展开更多

The optimum technological condition was obtained through orthogonal experiments by L_9(3~4) and DTA analysis. The result indicates that the factors of effecting the electrochemical properties of synthesized LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.2)O_2 are molar ratio of Li/Ni/Co, oxygen pressure, homothermal time, the final sintering temperature in turn according to its importance. The oxygen pressure is reviewed independently and the technological condition is further optimized. With the same method, rare earth element Ce was studied as substitute element of Co and the cathode material of LiNi_(0.95)Ce_(0.05)O_2 with excellent electrochemical properties was prepared. The electrochemical testing results of LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.2)O_2 and LiNi_(0.95)Ce_(0.05)O_2 experimental batteries show that discharge capacities of them reach 165 and 148 mAh·g^(-1) respectively and the persistence is more than 9 h at 3.7 V.展开更多
