Oxygen semipermeable solid oxide membrane composites prepared by electrochemical vapor deposition
نویسنده
چکیده
Ceramic membrane composites consisting of a coarse porous a-alumina or two-layer porous alumina membrane support and an oxygen semipermeable gas tight thin (0.2-5 pm) yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) film are prepared by the electrochemical vapor deposition (EVD) method. The minimum gastight thickness of the YSZ films depends strongly on the average pore size of the support on which the films are deposited by the EVD process. The oxygen permeation fluxes through such gas tight YSZ membrane composites, measured in situ on the EVD apparatus, are in the range of 3 x lo-’ to 6 X lo-’ mol/cm’-set with an oxygen partial pressures of Pb, (high) x 3 x 10 m-2 atm and P& (low) x 10 -’ atm, much larger than the literature data for thicker YSZ pellets. During the oxygen permeation experiments the rate-limiting step is found to be the bulk electrochemical transport in the grown YSZ films with a thickness smaller than 10 pm.

In this paper the role of super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPI) on Platinum nanoclusters on activated carbon (Pt/C) for electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction was considered. Four composites of Pt/C and super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared with the same total composites weight and different loading of Pt/C (1.2, 0.6, 0.4 and 0.3 mg ). The composite attached ...

By means of electrochemical vapour deposition (E VD), it is possible to grow thin (0.5-j pm), dense airconia/yttria layers on porous ceramic substrates. Kinetics of the EVD process, morphology and oxygen permeation properties of the grown layers are investigated. Very thin (0,.5 t-an) layers are grown at relatively low temperatures (700 SOO’C). Water vapour as reactant enhances the surface reac...

Hybrid Molten/Solid In2O3-Bi2O3 Oxygen Ion Transport Membranes
The hybrid molten/solid In2O3 - 30-48 wt.% Bi2O3 oxide materials were studied with respect to their transport properties. The conductivities, oxygen ion transport numbers and oxygen permeation fluxes have been measured by using the four-probe DC, volumetric measurements of the faradaic efficiency and gas flow techniques, respectively. We show that the...
