Abstract
Lanthanum doped strontium titanate–gadolinium doped cerium oxide (LST-GDC) anodic layers are sintered in air and further reduced in-situ at low temperature (750°C) avoiding usually performed pre-reduction treatment at high temperature. The influence of various milling techniques and of powders with different specific surface area, on the microstructures of screen-printed anodes, is investigated. The combination of milling and sonication processes is efficient in reducing aggregation of the anode powders. The anode performance is improved when a planetary milling step is involved in the preparation of the screen printing inks. The use of gadolinium doped cerium oxide with high specific surface area decreases the polarization resistance. The rate of hydrogen oxidation is also enhanced by increasing porosity.
