Comparative Study of Structural and Ionic Properties of Doped Zirconia Electrolytes for Solid Oxide Fuel CellsBy Kanchan L Singh, Payal l Sharma, Anirudh P. Singh, Chetan Sharma
Abstract: The current study looks at yttria and scandia doped zirconia electrolytes for application in solid oxide fuel cells. Samples with (i) 10 mol% yttria, (ii) 5 mol% yttria and 5 mol% scandia, and (iii) 10 mol% scandia in zirconia host lattice were prepared by mixed oxide method and were sintered by conventional heating at 1400°C for six hours. The samples were then analysed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron …

Study of Microstructural and Mechanical Properties of YSZ and YSZ/Al2O3 Nanopowders Synthesized by Solution Combustion MethodBy Payal Sharma, Kanchan L Singh, Rachna Rattan, Anirudh P. Singh
Abstract: AbstractIn the present work different compositions of nanocrystalline tetragonal zirconia stabilized with yttrium oxide (YSZ) have been produced by solution combustion route. Same compositions of YSZ with alumina doping have also been prepared by similar method. The nanopowders obtained are characterized by various characterization techniques like XRD, FTIR, SEM and Wilson Hardness testing techniques. XRD and FTIR analysis confirmed the tetragonal phase of calcined YSZ sample. The particle sizes are …

Relative Study on the Behavior and Performance of Various Electrolyte Materials for Solid Oxide Fuel CellsBy Payal Sharma, Kanchan L Singh, AP Singh
Abstract: Aim of the present study is to provide an insight of development of electrolyte material for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) with principle emphasis on materials aspects. In recent years, the major interest is to reduce the working temperature of SOFC, so that, the problems like thermal instability, high chemical reactivity, high cost etc. can be minimized as well as life of a fuel cell can be increased with reduction …
