Abstract:
In comparison to various power generating devices/energy conversion systems, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) has received much attention due to its remarkable efficiency, reliability and low pollution. Modified pechini method is used to synthesize La0.7Sr0.3Ti0.1Fe0.6Ni0.3O3-delta (LSTFN) pemvskite material and is utilized as cathode and anode for intermediate-temperature symmetrical solid oxide fuel cell (IT-SSOFC). The X-ray diffractometer (XRD) patterns reveals perovskite cubic structure with single phase for LSTFN. The maximum conductivity similar to 318 Scm(-1) is obtained for LSTFN in air at a temperature of 700 degrees C, but is decreased with further increase in temperature due to small polaron mechanism. However, the conductivity is enhanced up to similar to 1.1 Scm(-1) at the same temperature in the presence of dry H-2, being capable to be utilized both as anode and cathode. Low polarization resistance (Rp) similar to 0.047 (with air) and 0.20 Omega cm(2) (with dry H-2) is exhibited by as prepared perovskite material at a temperature of 800 degrees C. The fabricated symmetrical cell maintains good stability with no apparent degradation during the tested hours similar to 300 in air and similar to 100 with dry H-2.
