This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yttria-doped zirconia (YDZ) has been used as electrolyte for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) for many years. Nevertheless, fundamental questions regarding the thermal stability and thus the degradation of ionic conductivity of YDZ are controversially discussed in literature. In this study, thick-film and sol-gel prepared thin-film YDZ electrolytes with yttria concentrations in the range of 7.3-10 mol% were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with emphasis on microstructural and chemical changes during high-temperature operation. In general, nanoscaled regions of metastable tetragonal YDZ were found in all investigated specimens. Depending on dopant concentration and thermal treatment, the microstructural and chemical decomposition of the material on the scale of 10 nm could be shown by quantitative analytical TEM. Hence, clarifying conclusions regarding the YDZ phase diagram in the targeted dopant range are drawn. A revised boundary of the instability region, in which YDZ has to be expected to decompose, is presented. In conclusion, the developing inhomogeneities in decomposing YDZ are discussed as reason for the decrease of ionic conductivity during operation.

This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A process for the deposition of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) films, on porous substrates, has been developed. These films have possible applications as electrolyte membranes in fuel cells. The films were deposited from colloidal suspensions through the vacuum infiltration technique. Films were deposited on both fully sintered and partially sintered substrates. A critical cracking thickness for the films was identified and strategies are presented to overcome this barrier. Green film density was also examined, and a method for improving green density by changing suspension pH and surfactant was developed. A dependence of film density on film thickness was observed, and materials interactions are suggested as a possible cause. Non-shorted YSZ films were obtained on co-fired substrates, and a cathode supported solid oxide fuel cell was constructed and characterized.

Download or read book Impact of the Glancing Angle Deposition on the Yttria Stabilized Zirconia Growth and Their Thermal Barrier Coating Properties written by Gustavo Zambrano and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is the most common material used as a thermal barrier in several engineering applications. The majority of films produced by physical vapor deposition (PVD) techniques use normal incidence and lead to the columnar growth normal to the substrate. The typical columnar structure of sputter-deposited films is largely influenced, among other parameters, by pressure, temperature, thickness, and the ion-to-atom ratio incident at the substrate or substrate bias voltage. Another important experimental parameter used to modify the film properties is the direction of the incident flux of the depositing species with respect to the substrate surface. In this chapter an oblique angle deposition (OAD) approach was used to grow YSZ with tilted columnar structures, to study the impact of this deposition technique on the microstructure, morphology, and, correspondingly, the thermal conductivity of YSZ films, in order to improve the insulator potential of these thin films. Additionally, in the chapter, we present a detailed description of the oblique angle deposition (OAD) technique and double-layer model used for determination of the effective thermal conductivity of YSZ samples grown over thick substrates.

Download or read book A Combinatorial Study of Yttria Stabilized Zirconia as an Electrolyte Candidate for Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells written by Natalie Alexandra Becerra and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combinatorial research can have two main uses. The first is to perform cursory measurements of many materials to find a composition whose properties are ideal for some known application. The second function of combinatorial research is to test many materials for ideal values of a particular property in order to learn more about that property and variables that can alter it. This study focused on adequately measuring, modeling and calculating the parameters that affect the ionic conductivity of a particular binary spread of yttria stabilized zirconia. At three separate temperatures, the resulting ionic conductivity vs. composition graphs showed trends similar to those found in the literature for bulk materials, which validate the methods that were developed and optimized in this thesis. Further studies of activation energy and phase structure were performed and produced results that also match data found in the literature. Future work can expand on the methods detailed here and examine other combinations of materials such as zirconia co-doped with yttria and scandia or gadolinium-doped ceria.
