... electrolyte with a thin electrolyte layer of 6μm composed of the synthesized 1Ce10ScSZ powders was fabricated using the tape-casting and co-sintering techniques for a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) single cell. The open-circuit voltage of the single cell thus obtained was 1.11 V at 750 °C, indicating the dense...

...Yaohui Zhang; Jiang Liu; Juan Yin Dense and microcrack free yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) was deposited onto porous NiO-YSZ anode tubes by dip coating without any vacuum assistance. The anode tubes were prepared by slip casting. Open circuit voltage of 1.05 V was obtained at 800 ° C , implying...

...-temperature varying properties. The processes used to cast Nafion represent the state of the art in membrane casting. According to DuPont ( 20 ), Nafion membrane is “extrusion-cast” and “dispersion-cast.” In extrusion casting, the membrane is melted through a slot or flat die, forced onto the surface...

... methodology can be used to develop a complete manufacturing system to fabricate a defect free film. Moreover, the casting method offers significant improvements for the thickness uniformity of the membrane film, compared with film that is fabricated using scaled laboratory processes. The pressure losses...

... to improve the properties of the materials at high temperature due to their characteristics of softly proton conductor and/or hygroscopicity. The membranes were prepared by the Doctor-Blade casting technique that permits a good check of the thickness and a good reproducibility. A commercial ZrO 2 was used...
