Compostos da família La1-xSr xCr0,5Mn0,5O3 são apontados como potenciais anodos cerâmicos de células a combustível de óxidos sólidos. A utilização de anodos cerâmicos tem como objetivo eliminar os problemas de depósito de carbono na superfície do níquel e a baixa resistência a ciclos de redução/oxidação observados no compósito cerâmica-metal à base de zircônia estabilizada e níquel, que é o material anódico mais usado nestas células. Neste estudo são apresentados os resultados da síntese pela técnica dos precursores poliméricos e da caracterização de compostos com x = 0,5, estequiométrico e com 5% de deficiência catiônica no sítio A da estrutura perovskita La1-xSr xCr0,5Mn0,5O3 e (La1-xSr x)0,95Cr0,5Mn0,5O3, respectivamente. Os resultados evidenciam que o composto estudado possui altos valores de condutividade elétrica e baixa reatividade com eletrólitos à base de zircônia.

O objetivo deste trabalho é descrever a síntese e a caracterização óptica de uma solução sólida de óxido de zircônio contendo ítrio e lantânio. Foram misturados citrato de zircônio, nitrato de ítrio e nitrato de lantânio nas proporções 94 mol% ZrO2-6 mol% Y2O3 e 92 mol% ZrO2-6 mol % Y2O3-2 mol % La2O3. A análise de espectroscopia de absorção no infravermelho com tranformada de Fourier mostra material orgânico em decomposição e a análise térmica mostra a transformação de fases da zircônia tetragonal para monoclínica, a perda de água e a desidroxilação do zircônio. A análise por difração de raios X mostra formação de fases homogênea de ZrO2-Y2O3-La2O3 demonstrando que a adição de lantânio não provoca formação de fases, promovendo uma solução sólida baseada em zircônia cúbica. Os espectros de fotoluminescência mostram bandas de absorção em 562 nm e 572 nm (350 ºC) e bandas de absorção específicas em 543 nm, 561 nm, 614 nm e 641 nm (900 ºC). O efeito fotoluminescente a baixas temperaturas é causado por defeitos como (Y Zr,Y O)', (2Y Zr,V O)'' e V O. As emissões em 614 nm e 641 nm são causadas pela transição O-2p -> Zr-4d. Uma emissão em 543 nm pode ser atribuída a centros LaO8 com transição O-2p -> La-5d.

The preparation of the ZrO(2):8 mol % Y(2)O(3)/NiO (YSZ/NiO) composites by a modified liquid mixture technique is reported. Nanometric NiO particles dispersed over the yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) were prepared, resulting in dense sintered specimens with no solid solution formation between the oxides. Such a feature allowed for the electrical characterization of the composites in a wide range of relative volume fraction, temperature, and oxygen partial pressure. The main results indicate that the composites have high electrical conductivity, and the transport properties in these mixed ionic-electronic (MIEC) composites are strongly dependent on the relative volume fraction of the phases, microstructure, and temperature. These parameters should hence be taken into consideration for the optimized design of MIEC composites for electrochemical applications. In this context, the composite was reduced under H(2) for the preparation of high-conductivity YSZ/Ni cermets for use as solid oxide fuel cell anode material with relatively low metal content.

We report the preparation and characterization of yttria-stabilized zirconia/nickel oxide composites (YSZ/NiO). This composite is the precursor material of the cermet YSZ/Ni, which is used as solid oxide fuel cell anode material. The performance of the anode is strongly dependent on the microstructural properties of the cermet. Therefore, the control of the microstructure of the YSZ/NiO composite is a key step for the fabrication of high-performance anodes. In this study, the composites were prepared by a modified liquid mixture technique. Scanning electron microscopy analysis evidenced the good dispersion of the phases and that NiO nanoparticles are spread over the YSZ surface. Sintered pellets were studied by X-ray diffraction and impedance spectroscopy. The main results show that the composite is comprised of a well-dispersed mixture of the two phases. The electrical conductivity data show that there is a strong dependence of the transport mechanism on the relative composition of phases. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A detailed study of the microstructural and electrical properties of the yttria-stabilized zirconia/nickel oxide (YSZ/NiO) composite was performed. This material is the precursor to the solid oxide fuel cell anode cermet YSZ/Ni. A liquid mixture technique was developed to produce the YSZ/NiO composite to fabricate high-performance SOFC anodes. This technique resulted in fine and homogeneous powders and specimens with high electrical conductivity. The combined results showed that this technique is suitable for the production of the anode cermet.

Catalysts containing mixtures of NiO, MgO and ZrO2 were synthesized by the polymerization method. They were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), physisorption of N-2 (BET), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES), and then tested in the partial oxidation of methane (POM) in the presence of air (2CH(4):1O(2)) at 750 degrees C for 6 h. Among the ternary oxides, the catalyst with 40 mol% MgO showed the highest conversion rates in the catalytic processes, but also the highest carbon deposition values (48 mmol h (1)). The greater the amount of NiO-MgO solid solution formed, the higher was the conversion rate of reactants (CH4), peaking at 40 mol% of MgO. Catalysts with lower Ni content on the surface achieved a high rate of CH4 conversion into synthesis gas (H-2 + CO). The formation of more NiO-MgO solid solution seemed to inhibit the deactivation of Ni degrees during reaction. The values of the H-2/CO product ratio were generally found to be slightly lower than stoichiometric. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Tb3+ doped CaZrO3 has been prepared by an easy solution combustion synthesis method. The combustion derived powder was investigated by X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry and scanning electron microscopy techniques. A room temperature photoluminescence study showed that the phosphors can be efficiently excited by 251 nm light with a weak emission in the blue and orange region and a strong emission in green light region. CaZrO3:Tb3+ exhibits three thermoluminescence (TL) glow peaks at 126 degrees C, 200 degrees C and 480 degrees C. Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) studies were carried out to study the defect centres induced in the phosphor by gamma irradiation and also to identify the centres responsible for the TL peaks. The room temperature ESR spectrum of irradiated phosphor appears to be a superposition of two distinct centres. One of the centres (centre I) with principal g-value 2.0233 is identified as an O- ion. Centre II with an axial symmetric g-tensor with principal values g(parallel to) = 1.9986 and g(perpendicular to) = 2.0023 is assigned to an F+ centre (singly ionised oxygen vacancy). An additional defect centre is observed during thermal annealing experiments and this centre (assigned to F+ centre) seems to originate from an F centre (oxygen vacancy with two electrons). The F centre and also the F+ centre appear to correlate with the observed high temperature TL peak in CaZrO3:Tb3+ phosphor. (c) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
