  • Patent number: 11349130
    Abstract: A method of producing an infiltrated solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) layer. The method begins by infiltrating a solution containing a solute into a SOFC layer to produce a primary SOFC layer. The primary SOFC layer is then dried in a heated environment, wherein the heated environment ranges in temperature from about 25° C. to about 100° C. to produce a dry primary SOFC layer. The dry primary SOFC layer is then cooled at a rate less than about 5° C./min to room temperature to produce a cooled primary SOFC layer. The cooled primary SOFC layer is then heated to a temperature greater than 500° C. then quenching to a temperature from about 10° C. to about 30° C. to produce an infiltrated SOFC layer.

    Abstract: A method of forming a solid oxide fuel cell. The method begins by tape casting an anode support. Next an anode functional layer slurry comprising of NiO and ScCeSZ ceramic powder is coated onto the anode support. The anode functional layer slurry is then dried to form an NiO—ScCeSZ anode functional layer on the anode support. A first electrolyte layer comprising of a ScCeSZ slurry is then coated onto the NiO—ScCeSZ functional layer. The first electrolyte layer is then dried to form a ScCeSZ electrolyte layer on the NiO—ScCeSZ functional layer. A second electrolyte layer comprising of a samarium doped CeO2 (SDC) slurry is then coated onto the ScCeSZ electrolyte layer. The second electrolyte layer is then dried to form a SDC electrolyte layer on the ScCeSZ electrolyte layer.
