AbstractThe electrical conductivity of FexO-CaO-SiO2-Al2O3 slags was measured by a four terminal method. The results show that the temperature dependences of total, electronic and ionic conductivity for different compositions obey the Arrhenius law and all of them increase as increasing the temperature. For all the studied slags, as increasing CO/CO2 ratio which is used to controlled the oxygen potential, both the total electrical conductivity and electronic conductivity increase, but the ionic conductivity decreases. It was also found that the electronic transference number exhibits a strong correlation with oxygen potential, but is independent of temperature. Under the condition of constant FexO content, the higher the basicity of slags is, the higher the total electrical conductivity and ionic/electronic conductivity will be, which is resulted from the increase of free oxygen ion.

Y0.06Sr0.94Ti0.6Fe0.4O3-δ-YSZ composites were prepared by mixing Y, Fe co-doped SrTiO3 (Y0.06Sr0.94Ti0.6Fe0.4O3-δ known as YSTF) and 8 mol% Y2O3 stabilized ZrO2 (YSZ) in different weight fractions. The phase stability, phase compatibility, microstructure and mixed ionic-electronic conductivity of composites were investigated. Phase analysis by XRD showed no clearly detectable secondary phases. The electrical conductivity measurement on the YSTF-YSZ composites showed a drastic decrease in total electrical and ionic conductivities when more than 10 wt% of YSZ was used in the composites. The total electrical conductivity was 0.102 S/cm for Y0.06Sr0.94Ti0.6Fe0.4O3-δ and 0.043 S/cm for YSTF-20YSZ at 700 oC, respectively. The value at 700 oC is approximately 2.4 times higher than that of YSTF-20YSZ. The ionic conductivity of Y0.06Sr0.94Ti0.8Fe0.2O3-δ varies from 0.015S/cm at 700 oC to 0.02 S/cm at 800 oC, respectively. The value at 800°C is approximately 12.5 times higher than YSTF-20YSZ. The ion transference numbers of YSTF-YSZ composites vary from 0.14 to 0.28 at 800 °C.

The Y2O3-ZrO2 binary system ceramic is considered to be most developed in application to the ZrO2-based materials. A cubic fluorite structure is generally achieved, as the metal ion of the additive (Y) takes place of the Zr4+ and oxygen ion vacancies are produced in the lattice to maintain the charge balance. This leads to almost totally ionic conductivity. The introduction of changeable valued CeO2 can further improve the total electronic conductivity through the defect equilibrium reaction between tetravalent Ce4+ and trivalent Ce3+ at high temperature and reducing atmosphere. In this study, solid phase synthesis method was employed for the preparation of (YO1.5)x-(CeO2)0.08-(ZrO2)0.9-x and (YO1.5)0.05-(CeO2)y- (ZrO2)0.95-y ceramics, while four probe DC conductivity measurement method was also applied under the temperature between 300 to 800°C. The results prove that the concentration of Y3+ is the main contribution of the electrical conductivity at low temperature.

The structure, nonstoichiometry, and electrical conductivity of compositions in the BaBiO3– Ba(Ce1-xGdx)O3-x/2 system have been investigated in an attempt to prepare new mixed (ionic-electronic) conducting oxides. The substitution of Bi into Ba(Ce1-xGdx)O3-x/2 decreases the concentration of oxygen-ion vacancies, and the effective negative charge of the Gd dopant is compensated by the mixed valence of Bi (3+, 5+). For low Bi contents a decrease in ionic conductivity decreases the overall conductivity; however, higher levels of Bi introduce significant electronic conductivity, and for Ba(Bi0.5Ce0.5)O3, σtotal ≈ 1 S/cm at 800 °C in air. Compositions in the Ba(Bi0.5Ce0.5-xGdx)O3 pseudobinary system undergo a B-cation order-disorder transformation at 1300–1350 °C for x = 0.5 and at ≈1250 °C for x = 0.4; all other compositions retain a disordered B-site arrangement. While these disordered perovskites exhibit oxygen nonstoichiometry under reducing conditions at elevated temperatures, with the extent of reduction decreasing with increasing Gd content, their ordered counterparts remain close to stoichiometry. The electronic conductivities of this pseudobinary could be fitted to a “band-type” model, and, despite the presence of oxygen vacancies for the lower values of x, no significant ionic conductivity was observed.

Ceramic samples based on the microcrystalline powders (Cu1–хAgx)7GeSe5I (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) were prepared by pressing them at the pressure close to 400 MPa and subsequent annealing at 873 K for 36 hours. Using the microstructural analysis, the average size of microcrystallites of these samples was determined. Investigation of electrical conductivity of ceramics based on (Cu1 хAgx)7GeSe5I solid solutions was carried out using the method of impedance spectroscopy in the frequency range from 10 Hz to 3×105 Hz and within the temperature range 293...383 K. Analysis of the Nyquist plots allowed determining the contributions of ionic and electronic components to the total electrical conductivity. The temperature dependence of ionic and electronic conductivity in Arrhenius coordinates is linear, which indicates their thermoactivation character. The compositional behaviour of ionic and electronic conductivity, as well as their activation energies have been studied. Their nonlinear character can be explained by the complex process of recrystallization and Cu+ ↔ Ag+ cation substitution within the cationic sublattice.

ABSTRACTThe electrical conductivity of PrxCe1-xO2-δ (PCO) for 0 ≤ × ≤ 0.20 was examined over a wide range of temperatures and oxygen partial pressures. A defect model based on multiple Pr valence states was found to be qualitatively consistent with the observed data. A unique pO2-dependent ionic conductivity is observed at high pO2 values in compositions containing low levels of Pr (0 ≤ × ≤ 0.01). In compositions containing higher amounts of Pr (0.05 ≤ × ≤ 0.20), formation of a Pr induced impurity band results in a significant electronic conductivity at high pO2 values.

Abstract Among many mixed ionic electronic conductors (MIECs), lanthanum strontium cobalt iron oxide (LSCF) has been proven as a promising material for use as cathode in SOFCs. The ion and electron conduction in LSCF need to be studied separately. To measure the ionic conductivity of LSCF, YSZ disks were applied to block the electronic current, and multilayered samples were made with YSZ disks in series with an LSCF disk. Both AC and DC techniques were used for the measurements. An LSCF(porous)/LSCF(dense)/LSCF(porous) bar-shaped sample was made to measure the electronic conductivity of LSCF. DC technique was utilized for the measurement. Results show that the ionic conductivity of LSCF is much lower than its electronic conductivity. The ionic conductivity of LSCF increases with increasing temperature (600-900°C), and the electronic conductivity decreases with increasing temperature (600-900°C). Measurements were also made on a foil of silver to investigate oxygen transport through it. From this, oxygen ion conductivity through silver was estimated.

All that was said so far about passivity and passivation was indeed based on electrochemical prejudgments, and all based on unverified postulates. However, due the authors’ fame and for lack of anything better, the great many contradictions were carefully ignored. However, when resuming from raw experimental facts and the present general knowledge, it now appears that passivation always begins by the precipitation of a metallic hydroxide gel. Therefore, all the protectiveness mechanisms already known for porous corrosion layers apply, so that this outstanding protectiveness is indeed governed by the chemistry of transport processes throughout the entrapped water. For Al type passivation, the base metal ions only have deep and complete electronic shells, which precludes any electronic conductivity. Then protectiveness can only arise from gel thickening and densification. For Fe type passivation, an incomplete shell of superficial 3d electrons allows an early metallic or semimetallic conductivity in the gel skeleton, at the onset of the very first perfectly ordered inorganic polymers (- MII-O-MIII-O-)n. Then all depends on the acquisition, maintenance or loss of a sufficient electrical conductivity in this Faraday cage. But for both types of passive layers, all the known features can be explained by the chemistry of transport processes, with neither exception nor contradiction.
