Coulometric titration experiments have been done for copper doped cobaltous oxide (Co1-xCux)1-$\delta$ O with various dopant concentrations. We present the obtained experimental data and compare our results to those of previous thermogravimetric investigation. The experimental data are fitted by theoretical calculations based on various defect models. For this modeling, we considered different types fo major defects like copper in substitutional and interstitial lattice sites as well as copper vacancy. We also introduced the copper evaporation effect during titration experiment into our consideration.

The intermediate operating temperature of solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs) have achieved considerable importance in the area of power fabrication. This is because to improve materials compatibility, their long-term stability and cost saving potential. However, to conserve rational cell performance at reduced-temperature regime, cathode performance should be obtained without negotiating the internal resistance and the electrode kinetics of the cell. Recently, double perovskite structure cathodes have been studied with great attention as a potential material for IT-SOFCs. In this study, double-perovskite structured cathodes of $GdBaCoCuO_{5+\delta}$, $GdBaCo_{2/3}Cu_{2/3}Fe_{2/3}O_{5+\delta}$ compositions and $(1-x)GdBaCo_2O_{5+\delta}+xCe_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{1.95}$ (x = 10, 20, 30 and 40 wt.%) composites were evaluated as the cathode for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells(IT-SOFCs). Electrical conductivity of the cathodes were measured by DC 4-probe method, and the thermal expansion coefficient of each sample was measured up to $900^{\circ}C$ by a dilatometer study. Area specific resistances(ASR) of the $GdBaCo_{2/3}Cu_{2/3}Fe_{2/3}O_{5+\delta}$ cathode and 70 wt.% $GdBaCo_2O5+\delta$ + 30wt.% Ce0.9Gd0.1O1.95 composite cathode on CGO electrolyte substrate were analyzed using AC 3-probe impedance study. The obtained results demonstrate that double perovskite-based compositions are promising cathode materials for IT-SOFCs.

Strontium doped lanthanum manganite (LSM) with perovskite structure for SOFC cathode material shows high electrical conductivity and good chemical stability, whereas the electrical conductivity at intermediate temperature below $800^{\circ}C$ is not sufficient due to low oxygen ion conductivity. The approach to improve electrical conductivity is to make more oxygen vacancies by substituting alkaline earths (such as Ca, Sr and Ba) for La and/or a transition metal (such as Fe, Co and Cu) for Mn. Among various cathode materials, $LaSrMnCuO_3$ has recently been suggested as the potential cathode materials for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). As for the Cu doping at the B-site, it has been reported that the valence change of Mn ions is occurred by substituting Cu ions and it leads to formation of oxygen vacancies. The electrical conductivity is also affected by doping element at the A-site and the co-doping effect between A-site and B-site should be described. In this study, the $La_{1-x}Sr_xMn_{0.8}Cu_{0.2}O_{3{\pm}{\delta}}$ ($0{\leq}x{\leq}0.4$) systems were synthesized by a combined EDTA-citrate complexing process. The crystal structure, morphology, thermal expansion and electrical conductivity with different Sr contents were studied and their co-doping effects were also investigated.

$Y_2Ba_1Cu_1O_5(Y211)$ 분말은 출발물질로서 $Y_2O_3(99.9%)$, $BaCO_3(99.9%)$, and CuO(99.9%) 분말을 사용하여 고상반응법과 발화합성법을 이용하여 제조하였다. $Y_2Ba_1Cu_1O_5(Y211)$ 분말에 대한 상형성과 반응속도는 열처리 온도와 반응시간에 따른 시료들을 X-선 회절분석을 이용하여 연구하였다. X-선 회절선으로부터 측정된 전화율($X_{211}$)과 반응특성으로부터 상 형성속도가 분말의 입자크기에 의해 지배되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 발화합성법으로 제조된 Y211상의 활성화에너지(${\Delta}E_a$)는 고상반응법에 의해 제조된 것의 149.46 kJ/mol과 비교할 때 136.42 kJ/mol을 나타내었다. $Y_2Ba_1Cu_1O_5$계에서의 활성화에너지 값은 발화합성법이 고상반응법보다 더욱 효율적인 방법임을 보였다.

$Y_2O_3$(99.9%)와 $BaCO_3$(99.9%) 및 CuO(99.9%)를 사용하여 $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$(123) 분말을 발화합성법에 의해 제조하였다. 발화전 용액을 여러 가지 pH로 변화시켜 제조하였으며, 이 분말을 성형하여 열처리 온도와 시간 변화에 따른 상형성과 반응특성을 조사하였다. 시료의 조성과 조직의 특성은 ICP와 SEM을 이용하여 측정하였고, Y-Ba-Cu-O계의 상형성과 전화율을 결정하기 위해 X선 회절분석을 하였다. 발화합성법을 이용하여 pH 7(${\pm}0.3$)에서 제조된 123 분말이 순도와 균일성 및 반응특성에서 가장 좋은 결과를 보였다. pH 7(${\pm}0.3$)에서 제조된 분말을 이용한 123 상생성에 따른 활성화에너지(${\Delta}E_a$)는 191kJ/mol으로서 고상반응법의 230kJ/mol에 약 13% 정도 더 낮았다.

The barium rich region of the Y-Ba-Cu-O-C system includes a tetragonal perovskite-like phase, which possesses a wide homogeneity region toward yttrium, copper and carbonate ion on the one hand, and toward oxygen, on the other hand. Accounting for vacancies ($\square$-vacancy) this phase could be described by the general formula per unit cell: {Ba$_8$}[Y$_{3-z}$Cu$_{5-x}$$(CO_3)_n$ $\square$$_{x+x-n}$]O$_{y{\pm}{\delta}y}$ (*). Here, cube-octahedral sites are represented in braces, while quasioctahedral ones with proper octahedral (Y, Cul), square (Cu2) and triangular (CO$_3$) configuration are shown in square brackets. The formula (*) was confirmed by full-profile Rietveld refinement based on X-ray diffraction data of YBa$_{5}$Cu$_2$O$_y$ (1-5-2 phase). Homogeneity region limits of the phase (*) at 96$0^{\circ}C$ in air were determined to be -0.33$\leq$x$\leq$1.80, 0.33$\leq$z$\leq$2.00, 0$\leq$n$\leq$3.

Sequential extraction was carried out on twenty two subsamples of three ferromanganese crusts from three seamounts (Lemkein, Lomilik, and Litakpooki) near the Marshall Islands in the western Pacific. The extraction was designed to fractionate Fe-Mn crust forming elements into low defined groups: (1) exchangeable and carbornate, (2) Mn-oxide, (3) Fe-oxyhyd.oxide, and (4) residual fraction. X-ray diffraction result shows that target material were well removed by each extraction step except for CFA in phosphatized crusts generation. According to chemical analysis of each leachate, most of elements in the Fe-Mn crusts are bound with two major phases. Mn, Ba, Co, Ni, Zn, (Fe, Sr, Cu, and V) are strongly bounded with Mn-oxide $({\delta}-MnO_2)$ phase, whereas Fe, Ti, Zr, Mo, Pb, Al, Cu,(V, P, and Zn) show chemical affinity with Fe-oxyhydroxide phase. This result indicates that significant amount of Al, Ti, and Zr can not be explained by detrital origin. Ca, Mg, K, and Sr mainly occur as exchangeable elements and/or carbonate phase. Outermost layer 1 and inner layer 2 which are both young crusts generations are similar in chemical speciations of elements. However, some of Fe-oxyhydroxide bounded elements (Pb, Y, Mo, Ba, Al, and V) in phosphatized innermost layer 3 are released during phosphatization and incorporated into phosphate (Pb, Y, Mo, and Ba) or Mn-oxide phase (Al and V). Our sequential extraction results reveal that chemical speciations of elements in the hydrogenetic crusts are more or less different from interelemental relationship calculated by statistical method based on bulk chemistry.
