Abstract

CuCo₂O₄-Gd_0.1Ce_0.9O_1.95 (GDC) composite was investigated as a potentially promising cathode material for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs). The CuCo₂O₄-GDC composite cathodes were characterized via X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and thermal expansion. CuCo₂O₄-GDC composites exhibited a good chemical compatibility and thermal compatibility for each composition. Introduction of the GDC nanoparticles increased the length of TPBs and enhanced the electrochemical activities of the CuCo₂O₄-GDC composite cathode. The polarization resistance with addition of 60 wt.% of GDC showed the least value of 0.09 Ω cm² at 800 °C. The results demonstrated that CuCo₂O₄-GDC composite would be a promising cathode material for IT-SOFCs.
