Abstract

To enhance the electrocatalytic activity in the oxygen reduction and the evolution reactions of air electrode materials, we fabricate a double perovskite structured NdBa 0.5Sr 0.5Co 1.5Fe 0.5-xNi xO 5+δ with triple-conducting properties for reversible protonic ceramic cells (RPCCs). In particular, Ni doping into B-site (of ABO 3 perovskite structure) is used to tailor the surface properties and bulk diffusion of NdBa 0.5Sr 0.5Co 1.5Fe 0.5O 5+δ perovskites. Among the various amounts of dopants, doping with 5 mol% Ni significantly increases the activity of oxygen electrodes in moist air, including the conductivity of protons and oxygen-ions. The area specific resistance (ASR) values of the NdBa 0.5Sr 0.5Co 1.5Fe 0.45Ni 0.05O 5+δ (NBSCFN5) electrode in the BaZr 0.1Ce 0.7Y 0.1Yb 0.1O 3-δ electrolyte are 0.70 Ω·cm 2 at 650 ℃. The electrical conductivity of NBSCFN5 is 423–714 S·cm −1 at the RPCCs operating temperature (500–700 ℃), which is significantly higher than that of the conventional perovskite air electrode materials. Furthermore, the ASR of the NBSCFN5 symmetrical cell decreases considerably from 9.02 to 6.86 Ω·cm 2 in dry air to pH 2O = 0.6 atm at 550 ℃, implying its excellent proton conduction. This suggests that NBSCFN5 is a promising air electrode material for next-generation high-performance RPCCs at lower temperatures.
