Resumo
Ceria-based ceramics have been proposed to be used as solid electrolyte in solid oxide fuel cells operating at intermediate (500-750°C) temperatures, due to their high ionic conductivity. Samarium ion is recognized as one of the most reliable dopants for cerium oxide because of its lower association energy with oxygen vacancies. One challenge posed to ceria-based solid electrolytes is how to improve sinterability, avoiding high temperatures to attain good densification. Thermal treatments at high temperatures may reduce Ce4+ to Ce3+, favoring electron transport and generation of micropores in the sintered electrolyte. Introduction of a second additive is a usual approach to overcome these constraints. In this work calcium ion was chosen as the second additive. Sm0.2-xCaxCe0.8O1.9-x/2 compositions, with x = 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2, were prepared by solid-state reaction, and the influence of the additive content on densification and ionic conductivity was investigated. All compositions were found to have cubic fluorite-type structure. The optimal composition was Sm0.175Ca0.025Ce0.8O1.888, which showed a relative density of 97%, single phase and higher ionic conductivity than the Sm0.2Ce0.8O1.9 parent electrolyte.
