Abstract

AbstractBaCe0.8Pr0.2O3 (BCP20) and BaCe0.6Pr0.4O3 (BCP40) powders are successfully synthesized through the Pechini method and used as the cathode materials for proton‐conducting solid state oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The prepared cells consisting of the structure of a BaZr0.1Ce0.7Y0.2O3–δ (BZCY7)‐NiO anode substrate, a BZCY7 anode functional layer, a BZCY7 electrolyte membrane, and a cathode layer, are measured from 600 to 700 °C with humidified hydrogen (∼3% H2O) as the fuel and static air as the oxidant. The electricity results show that the cell with BCP40 cathode has a higher power density, which could obtain an open‐circuit potential of 0.99 V and a maximum power density of 378 mW cm–2 at 700 °C. The polarization resistance measured at the open‐circuit condition of BCP40 is only 0.16 Ω cm2 at 700 °C, which was less than BCP20.
