Abstract
In this paper, La0.8Sr0.2MnO3-Ba0.1Bi0.9O1.5-δ (LSM-BSB) composite cathode was prepared and characterized for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs). XRD results show that no reaction occurred between LSM and BSB at 900°C. SEM results show that the LSM-BSB composite cathode formed good contact with YSZ electrolyte after sintered at 900°C for 2 h, which significantly reduced the sintering temperature of cathode. Compared with the LSM-YSZ electrode sintered at 1200°C for 2 h, LSM-BSB electrode exhibits better electrochemical performance. At 800°C, the area specific resistance (ASR) of the LSM-BSB30 electrode is about 0.168 Ωcm2, which is nearly 1.5 times lower than that of LSM-YSZ composite cathode.
