In this work, anode-supported solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) has been successfully prepared by tape casting and co-sintering technique. The structure contains the thin and dense 10% Sc2O3-stabilized-ZrO2 (SSZ) electrolyte layer and the anode layers with continuous porosity gradient. The decomposition of organic additives and the shrinkage of green tape were analyzed by thermo-gravimetric and differential thermal analyses (TG-DSC) and thermal dilatometry. The microstructure morphologies and the porosity of anodes were examined by SEM and Archimedes method. The obtained anodes with continuous porosity gradient facilitate diffusion of the fuel gas and enlarge electrochemical active three phase boundaries. The open circuit voltage (OCV) was close to 1.1 V. The maximum power densities of single cell with graded Ni-SSZ anode were higher than non-gradient Ni-SSZ anode at 600, 650, 700, 750 and 800 degrees C and were 0.15, 0.30, 0.51, 0.70 and 1.00 W cm(-2), respectively. R-p of cell with graded Ni-SSZ anode was lower than that of non-gradient Ni-SSZ anode. Copyright (C) 2015, Hydrogen Energy Publications, LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
