Properties of ZrO2:3 mol % Y2O3−(Na,K)2CO3−(Li,Na,K)2CO3 triple-layer membranes for carbon dioxide ion permeation. <b>Energy and Fuels</b>, v. 38, n. 11, p. 9890-9897, 2024.

The porous 3YSZ pellets were first impregnated with a molten eutectic (Na,K)2CO3 (NKC) composition at 710 °C, followed by cooling to 420 °C for impregnation with a molten eutectic (Li,Na,K)2CO3 (LNKC) composition. The presence of sodium and potassium was evaluated by performing energy-dispersive X-ray analyses on the surfaces of triple-layer membranes. Permeation measurements were performed by using a homemade gas permeation setup. Electrical conductivity of carbon dioxide ions across the pellet thickness was measured at 475 °C for over 200 h by using impedance spectroscopy. No significant degradation of the electrical conductivity profile was observed during the test period, suggesting that the solid NKC layer acted as a protective barrier, preventing interaction between the 3YSZ ceramic and molten LNKC within the pore network.9890-9897openAccesscarbon dioxidezirconium oxidesceramicsyttrium oxidesporous materialselectric conductivityArtigo de periódico113810.1021/acs.energyfuels.3c05216https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9219-388Xhttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-8598-279X69.783.33
