Abstract

The sluggish of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics and the susceptibility to CO2 interactions are major barriers to the widespread application of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). In this study, a non-metal cation doping strategy was employed to enhance the ORR catalytic activity and CO2 tolerance of SrFeO3-δ cathode. SrFe1-xPxO3-δ (SFPx, x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2) materials were synthesized by substituting phosphorus (P) for Fe in SrFeO3-δ. The doping of P facilitated the formation of oxygen vacancies in SrFeO3-δ, enhancing oxygen adsorption, dissociation, diffusion, and charge transfer processes, leading to a notable increase in ORR catalytic activity. At 800 ℃, the polarization resistance of SFP0.15 was 0.08 Ω cm2, a reduction of 42.86 % compared to undoped SrFeO3-δ. Additionally, SFP0.15 achieved a peak power density of 749.36 mW cm2, representing a 91.99 % enhancement over SrFeO3-δ. These findings suggest that non-metal cation doping is an effective approach to boost the performance of SrFeO3-δ perovskite cathode.
