Nickel Oxide-YSZ Anode Powder for Coating Applications (NiYSZ-P)

Material has simple composition optimized for creating conducting layers. The powder is designed to be processed as non-aqueous coatings, though it can be processed by tape casting. Most often used in conjunction with a catalytic anode layer and is recommended to be used with our NiO-GDC. Firing temperatures are on the order of 1350-1400°C. Adhesion tests are recommended.

Specs:

Composition: 66% NiO - 34% YSZ8 by weight
Surface Area: 4-8 m2/g

Applications

Coatings on electrolyte-supported and cathode-supported SOFCs
Fabrication of anode-supported, thin-film electrolyte SOFCs
Catalytic anode layer coating on anode support/substrate
SOFCs operating via internal reforming or direct utilization of methane

•Benefits

FCM's combination of ceria-based catalytic layer and high-nickel current collection layer optimizes the material to meet the two important performance needs of SOFC anodes
Anode coatings prepared using FCM's screen printing inks exhibit excellent adhesion to electrolyte surfaces
FCM has optimized particle sizes to control of the pore structure of the fired material creating structures that are both strong and high performance
The use of pre-formulated anode powder mixtures saves processing time and assures batch-to-batch reproducibility
