Oxygen permeability of La1-xSrxCo1-yFeyO3 perovskite-type oxides.

B-Site Metal (Pd, Pt, Ag, Cu, Zn, Ni) Promoted La1−xSrxCo1−yFeyO3–δ Perovskite Oxides as Cathodes for IT-SOFCs

Perovskite oxides La1−xSrxCo1−yFeyO3–δ (LSCF) have been extensively investigated and developed as cathode materials for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs) due to mixed ionic–electronic conductivity and high electrooxygen reduction activity for oxygen reduction. Recent literature investigations show that cathode performances can be improved by metal surface modification o...

Polypyrrole-assisted oxygen electrocatalysis on perovskite oxides

Nitrogen-containing electrocatalysts, such as metal–nitrogen–carbon (M–N–C) composites and nitrogen-doped carbons, are known to exhibit high activities for an oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Moreover, even if the mechanism by which nitrogen improves the activities is not completely understood, a strong electronic interaction between nitrogen and active sites has been found in these composites....

Auto - combustion synthesis of perovskite - type oxides

A versatile one-pot auto-combustion method for the synthesis of powders of iron-doped strontium titanate, SrTi1-xFexO3-δ, has been developed. The synthesis is optimised by the combined use of EDTA and citric acid as chelating agents, and an appropriate balance between fuel and oxidising elements in the reaction mixture. The method produces immediately an almost phase-pure perovskite oxide powde...

Prediction of Formability in Perovskite-Type Oxides

Abstract: Prediction criterions for the formabilities of perovskite-type oxides are obtained by using the empirical structure map methods constructed by two parameters octahedral factor (rB/rO) and tolerance factor, on this structure map, simple point representing systems of forming and non forming are distributed in distinctively different regions. In this paper we found that the octahedral fa...
