| Abstract Scope |
The thickness, density, and microstructure of the electrodes and substrates in solid oxide cells dramatically affect the overall performance of the cell under operating conditions. There are several factors that can impact the density of the electrodes and substrates depending on the application or manufacturing methods, however, the surface area and particle size of the powders used have some of the most obvious effects. Additionally, the adhesion between the electrodes and the substrate are affected by the same properties. By tailoring these properties and their respective techniques, we have demonstrated an increase in cell performance and repeatability. |
