Interconnects

Abstract: The interconnect connects the anode side of one single cell with the cathode side of the adjacent single cell, thus preventing the fuel and oxidant gasses from mixing. Ceramic and metallic interconnects are the most widely used concepts. The ceramic interconnect materials used are LaCrO 3 base perovskites doped with Sr, Ca, or Mg and other metals in order to obtain sufficient electrical conductivity, to modify the thermal expansion, and to improve the sinterability. They are used for tu… Show more

“…Inter-diffusion tests are initially performed with a single Ni mesh and steel plate to understand the long term behavior in a simulated anode gas atmosphere (Ar + 4%H 2 + 2%H 2 O) at 800 °C up to 3000 h. Samples of interconnect steel materials Crofer 22 APU and Crofer 22 H, whose compositions are shown in Table 1, were in the dimensions of 20x50x1 mm 3 . The contact between the Ni-mesh and steel was accomplished by spotwelding.…”

“…In literature, cobalt is oxidized to CoO and it is stable in air at ambient temperature and above 900 o C. However, it is transformed into the black Co 3 O 4 if heated at 600-700 o C. Co 3 O 4 has the normal spinel structure of (6). (CoMnCr)O 4 might be determined as (Mn x Co 2-x )CrO 4 because manganese has hardly any solubility in chromia, even though Cr/Mn/spinel layer is mostly found in the outer layer of the surface oxide on ferritic stainless steels(7).…”

“…As the operating temperature of a SOFC is typically about 800°C, it is a difficult task to find an appropriate interconnect material which will satisfy all of the above stringent requirements. Doped LaCrO 3 [1][2][3][4] has been widely explored as a ceramic interconnect material for high-temperature SOFCs, operating between 800 and 1000°C. Its brittleness, high cost, and difficulty in manufacturing complex shapes have been the principal shortcomings of this material for application in a planar SOFC.…”
