A novel route to fabricate nano-fiber anode material for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is presented. Firstly, uniform nano-fibers of 8 mol % Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (8YSZ) were formed in an electrospinning process; then, these electrospun fibers were calcined at temperatures up to 1300 °C; and finally the ceramic 8YSZ nano-fibers were coated with nickel in an electroless plating process. Th...
