  • Publication number: 20070077476
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a paste for screen printing which is used in a process of fabricating an anode functional layer, an electrolyte layer and a cathode layer of an anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell. The paste for the solid oxide fuel cell contains raw material powder of each layer, ethyl cellulose which is a binder, alpha terpineol which is a solvent, and an alcoholic solvent which has solubility to a thermosetting binder contained in an anode support and which is added by 0.5 to 20 wt % of alpha terpineol as an additional solvent. The present invention also discloses a fabricating method of an anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell which forms each layer of the fuel cell by screen printing by using the paste.

  • Publication number: 20070015045
    Abstract: Disclosed is an anode supporter for a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). The SOFC comprises an anode supporter having a high gas permeability, a high electrical conductivity, a high electrochemical activity, a high mechanical strength, and a large area; an anode functional layer for attenuating a surface defect of the anode supporter and maximizing an electrochemical activity of the anode; an electrolyte having a ultra-thin film; a cathode functional layer for removing an interface reaction between the electrolyte and the cathode and enhancing an electrochemical reaction at the cathode; a cathode having an excellent interface bonding characteristic with the cathode functional layer and a high electrical conductivity; and a current collect layer for maximizing an electrical connection between the cathode and a separator or interconnector. Accordingly, a performance of the single cell of a large area is enhanced.
