摘要

Y-doped BaZrO3 has been widely investigated as an electrolyte material for intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells, However, its poor sinterability and high grain boundary resistance are major barriers to its practical application. In the present research, large-grained and high-conductive BaZr0·85Y0·15O3-δ (BZY15) electrolytes are fabricated via a facile method using Ba(NO3)2 and (ZrO2)0·92(Y2O3)0.08 as the starting materials. For comparison, BaCO3 and Ba(CH3COO)2 are also used as Ba sources to prepare BZY15. Micro-analysis indicates that BZY15 powders with large particle sizes and a homogenous morphology could be obtained at very low temperature due to the liquid phase environment provided by Ba(NO3)2. The Ba(NO3)2-derived pellet presents a homogeneous composition, in contrast to the Y segregation observed in the BaCO3- and Ba(CH3COO)2-derived pellets after sintering. Moreover, the widely used sintering aid, NiO, could further improve the sinterability and electrical properties of BZY15. The resulting BZY15 electrolyte shows a high conductivity of 3.9 × 10−3 S cm−1 at 600 °C.
