Abstract
AbstractThe electrochemical properties of perovskite-type materials, Ln2NiO4+δ (Ln = La, Pr) as cathodes on Ce0.9Gd0.1O3 (CGO) and YSZ electrolytes were studied from 400 to 700 °C under different oxygen partial pressures (pO2 = 0.01-1 atm) by using AC impedance spectroscopy. These oxide electrodes yielded lower area specific resistance (ASR) compared to manganite perovskites. Ln2NiO4+δ (Ln = La, Pr) on CGO showed similar electrochemical performance though La2NiO4 (LNO) has a smaller ASR than Pr2NiO4 (PNO). The polarization resistance of LNO on YSZ was 2 orders higher than that on CGO. The interfacial resistance between the electrode and electrolyte was much smaller for LNO on CGO than for LNO on YSZ.
