Abstract Global climate challenges necessitate the development of technologies that reduce civilization's dependence on non‐renewable resources. Very promising in this respect are solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). However, their high operating temperatures have imposed a variety practical limitations, and therefore major focus recent years has been new materials optimized microstructures. Here, we report results long‐term test using short stack with anode‐supported based standard materials,...
Long-term stable and robust stack technology is a pre-requisite for successful implementation of SOFC in the market so it one main issues development. Also bigger stacks are desirable systems with increased power output. Progress development illustrated. Enhanced thermo-mechanical robustness kW range was demonstrated by successfully cycling five layer incorporating cells 20 × cm² 100 times between 200 700°C. Aiming at utilization anode-supported from other manufacturers, design modified to...
Sol-gel-derived thin films play an important role as the functional coatings for various applications that require crack-free to fully function. However, fast drying process of a standard sol-gel coating often induces mechanical stresses, which may fracture films. An experimental study on crack formation in sol-gel-derived silica and organosilica ultrathin (submicron) is presented. The relationships among density, inter-crack spacing, film thickness were investigated by combining direct...
