NYSCC Alfred University Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology But first: “Where on earth is Alfred ?”

NYSCC Alfred University Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Anode: Ni + YSZ Cathode: La 1−x Sr x MnO 3-δ Electrolyte: 8 mol% Y 2 O 3 stabilized ZrO °C Operated at close to 1000°C.

Alternative Electrolyte Materials NYSCC Alfred University Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology For Example: Gadolinium doped Ceria Ce 0.8 Gd 0.2 O 1.9 Leading to lower operation temp. However !!! under reducing conditions: Ce +IV → Ce +III electronic conduction. Idea !!! Electron Trapping Interfaces. S.M. Haile, “Fuel cell materials and components,” Acta materialia, 51, (2003)

“Electron Trapping” NYSCC Alfred University Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology

So, how do we make such a microstructure? NYSCC Alfred University Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Coated Nano-particles. Densify/sinter and retain microstructure. (microwave sintering; fast & uniform)

Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Use two suspensions of particles with opposite charge. Zeta-potential (pH) Surfactant adsorption Porous coating; weak adhesion forces; requires large difference in particle size Heterocoagulation NYSCC Alfred University

Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Alfred University Precipitate coating material onto seed particles. Essentially “any” precipitation reaction can be used. As long as it is a “controlled” (slow) precipitation Dense and uniform coating Heteronucleation

Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Silica-Yttria: Schematic Examples of Microstructures NYSCC Alfred University Example

Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Silica spheres coated with yttria. Heteronucleation Example NYSCC Alfred University

Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Excess silica cores remain after phase transformation and sintering. Visualized by etching with HF. Heteronucleation Example cont. NYSCC Alfred University

Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Alfred University Alumina core (seed) Cobalt and Manganese surface layer; acceptor states at the interface Gadolinium doped Ceria (50 to 100 nm) oxygen-ion-conductor; ‘continuous phase’ Microwave sintering to retain the proposed microstructure Schematic of the “new” nano-composite electrolyte.

Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology Coated powders lead to unique microstructure. Microwave sintering is substantially faster. Submicron grain size can be retained Increased hardness. Electron trapping states at the alumina-ceria interface reduce electronic conductivity. Al 2 O 3 inclusions have no major effect on ionic-conductivity. Conclusions NYSCC Alfred University Better control of coating - thickness and uniformity. Test of other material combinations. Measure oxygen conductivity ‘directly’ (transference number). Test in a ‘real’ device !!! What’s next?
