Abstract

Proton-conducting solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), consisting of BaCe 0.7In 0.3O 3− δ (BCI30)-NiO anode substrates, BCI30 anode functional layers, BCI30 electrolyte membranes and BCI30-LaSr 3Co 1.5Fe 1.5O 10− δ (LSCF) composite cathode layers, were successfully fabricated at 1150 °C, 1250 °C and 1350 °C respectively by a single step co-firing process. The fuel cells were tested with humidified hydrogen (∼3%H 2O) as the fuel and static air as the oxidant. The single cell co-fired at 1250 °C showed the highest cell performance. The impedance studies revealed that the co-firing temperature affected the interfacial polarization resistance of a single cell as well as its overall electrolyte resistance.
