A state of the art anode for the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) consists of a mixture of 8 mol% Y2O3-stabilized zirconia (8YSZ) and nickel particles, which form an interconnected porous structure after sintering. Coarsening of the Ni particles under SOFC working conditions has to be avoided, hence it leads to a deterioration of the anodes performance. In the present work the aim was to improve the stability of the Ni particles by a reduction of the sintering activity of nickel. For this purpose between 10 and 50% by volume of nano-sized zirconia particles have been dispersed in the nickel matrix by dry ball mil領 in a planetary mill. For pressed samples made of mechanically alloyed Ni with 10 vol% of 8YSZ, a homogeneous dispersion of 8YSZ particles in the Ni matrix was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy. It was confirmed by mercury porosity penetration and optical microscopy that this dispersoid structure leads to a retardation of recrystallization. 法國CORDOUAN 動態(tài)光散射納米粒度儀 法國CORDOUAN ARAGO折光度計 FRITSCH激光粒度儀 FRITSCH激光粒度儀
