Characterization methods of nickel nano-particles obtained by the ex-solution process on the surface of Pr, Ni-doped SrTiO3 perovskite ceramics

Abstract

In this paper, a novel electrode material based on Pr, Ni co-doped strontium titanate ( Sr0.7Pr0.3)xTi1−yNiyO3 with constant amount of 30% praseodymium dopant, different amount of nickel (y = 0.06 and y = 0.10) and additional nonstoichiometry in Sr-site (x = 1; x = 0.9 and x = 0.8) was investigated as fuel electrode for SOEC devices. A porous ceramics were prepared by solid-state reaction method. X-ray diffraction measurements revealed single phase materials with perovskite structure. Ex-solution method makes the grain surface covered by nickel nanoparticles. The influence of nickel amount, non-stoichiometry, synthesis and reduction conditions on formation of nanoparticles was investigated. Size, distribution and ability to agglomeration of Ni nanoparticles were analyzed by the scanning electron microscopy. The quantity of ex-soluted Ni particles was calculated from magnetization measurement. The total electrical conductivity of samples was measured by DC 4-wire method in the range of 100–800 °C at different atmospheres. Electrical measurements showed total electrical conductivity higher than 10 S cm−1 in a wide temperature range. All obtained results confirmed that analyzed donor and acceptor co-doped SrTiO3 materials with Ni nanoparticles after ex-solution process should be a good candidate to improve a catalysis process on fuel electrode surface.
