Molten Sn and Bi were examined at 973 and 1073 K for use as anodes in solid oxide fuel cells with yttriastabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolytes. Cells were operated under "battery" conditions, with dry He flow in the anode compartment, to characterize the electrochemical oxidation of the metals at the YSZ interface. For both metals, the open-circuit voltages (OCVs) were close to that expected ba...
