Abstract
This paper reports new evidence that oxygen surface exchange and bulk diffusion in a mixed conductor can be simultaneously determined via the oxygen semi-permeation method. Herein, we report the use of an original apparatus for oxygen activity measurements at both membrane surfaces to evaluate the oxygen surface exchange and bulk diffusion coefficients. Oxygen surface exchange and bulk diffusion in the La1-xSrxFe1-yGayO3-δ perovskite series are also determined and compared with the results from three different methods: isotopic exchange, conductivity relaxation, and oxygen semi-permeation. Although the thermodynamic conditions for these methods are not exactly the same, the values obtained for the oxygen surface exchange and bulk diffusion coefficients are in good agreement.
