Zusammenfassung: | Pr0.7Sr0.3Fe1-xNixO3 delta (PSFN; x=0.2-0.5) compounds were synthesized and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) measurements, electrical conductivity and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy on coneshaped electrodes on a Ce0.9Gd0.1O1.95 (CGO10) electrolyte. The main phase of the powders belongs to the orthorhombic crystal system. The conductivities are fairly high, e.g., around 450 Scm-1 at 600 DGC for the x=0.3 compound. The TEC of the compounds is close to the values of ceria-based electrolytes. PSFN showed hysteresis in the temperature dependence of the conductivity, TEC and area-specific polarization resistance Rp.1. It is considered that the hysteresis was caused by relatively slow adjustment of the oxygen stoichiometry. The electrochemical performance Rp-1 of the PSFN compounds is similar to that of Lao. 6Sr0.4Fe0.sCo0.2O3-delta. |
