Electrochemical Characterization and Performance Evaluation of Pr0.7Sr0.3Co1-yCuyO3-δ as Cathode Material for IT-SOFCs
The cathode material Pr<,0.7>Sr<,0.3>Co<,1-y>Cu<,y>O <,3-δ> (y=0.05~0.3) was synthesized by a sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction indicated that the samples with y≤0.2 were single phase orthorhombic perovskite structure, but in the case of y=0.3, traces of a second phase were observed. The unit cell volumes increased with increasing copper content. The electrical conductivity decreased gradually with increasing Cu addition. The investigation of the electrochemical performance suggested that the sample with y=0.1 exhibited the lowest overpotential in all prepared Pr <,0.7>Sr<,0.3>Co<,1-y>Cu<,y>O<3-δ>. With Pr<,0.7>Sr <,0.3>Co<,0.9>Cu<,0.1>O<3-δ> cathode and porous NiO/Ce <,0.8>Sm<,0.2>O<,1.9> anode, the single cell based on SDC thin film electrolyte was obtained by a simple dry pressing process. Maximum power densities of the cell were 406 and 481mW·cm<- 2> at 700 and 750℃, respectively.
