Abstract Fuel electrode supported solid oxide cells (SOCs) have been developed on an industrial scale using the aqueous tape-casting technique. The NiO–yttria-stabilized zirconia Y 2 O 3 –ZrO (YSZ) fuel and YSZ electrolyte manufactured by multilayer co-laminated tape casting. Details of slurry formulations are described discussed. Two types were fabricated with different microstructures NiO–YSZ...

La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3−δ (LSCF) powders with different particle sizes, synthesized through a citrate complexation method and a gel-casting technique, are used to fabricate porous LSCF cathodes with graded microstructures via tape casting. To create porous electrodes with desired porosity and pore structures, graphite and starch are used as pore former for different layers of the graded cathode....

objective: this study compared the tension-free vaginal tape (tvt) and transobturator tape (tot) procedures for surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women. materials and methods: this prospective non randomized clinical trial was conducted in vali-e-asr hospital from march 2001 to march 2005. a total of 71 patients with clinical and urodynamic diagnosis of stress urinary inconti...

In this study various yttria doped  zirconia based thin films were prepared by the aqueous tape casting method. The rheological property of the paste was studies. The phase content and microstructure of the samples was investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope, respectively. The mechanical properties of thin films were studied by Vickers microhardness and nanoindentatio...

Using flawless components are important for a proper material selection and best working conditions to achieve the best performance of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Tape casting is the most used process for the fabrication of SOFC parts, especially anode and electrolyte due to its advantages regarding the other processes. In this study, the effect of slurry composition and milling time were s...
