Pd-La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3-δ composite as active and stable oxygen electrode for reversible solid oxide cells

Rui Yang et al.

Summary: To enhance the electrocatalytic activity and stability of LSCF oxygen electrodes in RSOCs, a Pd-LSCF composite oxygen electrode was prepared using a conventional physical mixed method. The Pd-LSCF|GDC|YSZ|Ni-YSZ cell exhibited excellent electrochemical performance in both SOFC and SOEC modes. The power density of the cell in the SOFC mode reached 1.73 W/cm(2) at 800 degrees C, higher than that of the LSCF oxygen electrode. In the SOEC mode, the current density at 1.5 V was 1.67 A/cm(2) at 800 degrees C under 50 vol% steam concentration. The long-term reversible operation of the RSOCs showed a low degradation rate of 2.2%/100 h and 2.5%/100 h in the SOEC and SOFC modes, respectively. These findings demonstrate that the incorporation of Pd into LSCF electrode significantly improves its electrochemical performance in RSOCs.
