| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ni-YSZ is widely used as a fuel electrode material for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). However, issues such as carbon deposition, sulfur poisoning and coarsening of Ni have been reported. Nickel-free fuel electrodes which do not use nickel have been investigated to improve the long-term durability. For example, perovskite materials such as LaxSr1-xCryMn1-yO3-δ (LSCM) are attracting attention as one of the promising alternative materials for nickel. Not only carbon precipitation and sulfur poisoning resistance, but also stability under the redox cycle has been reported. In this study, we conducted series of experiments on the LSCM-GDC fuel electrodes, and systematically evaluated the design parameters such as sintering temperature, fuel electrode thickness and mixing ratio.
