Abstract: | Ni-free anodes in SOFC and SOEC that can withstand severe conditions and provide high performances, which is of great practical and scientific interest. Lanthanum doped strontium titanates (LST) are among the most interesting alternatives to state of the are Ni-YSZ due to their excellent redox stability [1] low reactivity with other fuel cell components [2] and good electronic conductivity. Insufficient ionic conductivity of LST is only one of few drawbacks of this class of materials and can be mitigated through fabrication and optimization of composite electrodes containing LST and good ionic conductor (e.g. CGO or YSZ). In this study the electrochemical performance of ceramic (Ni-free) SOFC anodes, consisting of A-site deficient La0.2Sr0.7TiO3-d (LST) perovskite and Gd0.1Ce0.9O1.95-d (CGO), was thoroughly investigated. Microstructures and compositions were systematically modified to gain information about the microstructural impact on electrochemical performance. The highest impedances are measured at low frequencies, which in contrast to the literature cannot be linked with gas concentration impedance. The low frequency process (ca. ~1 Hz) was attributed to the chemical capacitance. The EIS and advanced microstructure quantification methodology point out that the chemical capacitance correlates inversely with the available surface area of CGO. The influence of CGO surface reactions, such as hydrogen adsorption, which represent the kinetic limitation for the dominant anode process at 1 Hz region and for the associated chemical capacitance, is discussed. The impact of 30 isothermal redox cycles on degradation and the anode performance is presented. |
