To prevent an interfacial reaction between the anode and the electrolyte layer during the conventional high-temperature co-firing process, an anode-supported type cell with a thin-film electrolyte was fabricated by low-temperature ceramic thick film coating process. Ni-GDC cermet composite was used as the anode material and YSZ was used as the electrolyte material. Open circuit voltage and maximum power density were found to strongly depend on the surface uniformity of the anode functional layer. By optimizing the microstructure of the anode functional layer, the open circuit voltage and maximum powder density of the cell increased to 1.11 V and $1.35W/cm^2$, respectively, at $750^{\circ}C$. When a GDC barrier layer was applied between the YSZ electrolyte and the LSCF cathode, the cell showed good stability, with almost no degradation up to 100 h. Anode-supported type SOFCs with high performance and good stability were fabricated using a coating process.

Planer-type electrolyte substrates are often utilized for stack manufacturing of electrolyte-supported solid oxide fuel cells (ES-SOFCs) to fulfill necessary requirements such as a high mechanical strength and redox stability. This work did an electrochemical analysis of ES-SOFC with different NiO-YSZ anode thicknesses to find the optimal value for the high performance of the fuel cell. The cell resistivities were constant at anode thickness between 25-58 ㎛, but a thick anode (74 ㎛) caused a high electrode resistivity leading to a dramatic reduction in cell performance. A stability test was performed for 50 hours at 700℃, and the results showed a degradation rate of 0.3% per 1000 h by extrapolated fitting.

The co-firing processes for the supported type planar solid oxide fuel cell were investigated. A flat cell of $7.7${\times}$10.8\textrm{cm}^2$ was fabricated successfully by the co-firing process, in which green films were co-sintered in the forms of two layers of anode/electrolyte or of three layers of anode/electrolyte/cathode with gas distributor. A co-fired cell of two layers yielded a power of 200 ㎽/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 608 ㎷. Its performance loss was mainly due to iR drop in the anodic gas distributor, which was attributed to poor contact between anodic gas distributor and current collector. The performance in the co-fired cell of three layers was much lower than that of two layers, which resulted from the large iR drop and activation overvoltage at the cathodic side. In the co-fired cell of two layers, the impedance analysis indicated that the performance decay during cell operation is due to both anode overvoltage and iR drop at anode side. Also the electrode reaction of the co-fired two layers' cell is considered to be controlled by activation overvoltage within the low current of 50 ㎃.

고체산화물연료전지의 상용화를 위해서 금속지지체형 고체산화물연료전지가 개발되었다. 이 연료전지는 기계적강도를 향상시킨 새로운 개념의 연료전지지만 접합층으로 인해 물질전달률이 감소한다. 본 논문에서는 전산해석을 이용하여 연료극지지체형 고체산화물연료전지와 금속지지체형 고체산화물연료전지의 물질전달율을 비교하고자 한다. 지배방정식, 전기화학반응, 세라믹 물성치 모델이 동시에 해석된다. 그리고 다공성 매질 내부의 물질전달 해석을 위해서 분자확산과 누센확산이 함께 고려된다. 전산해석의 검증을 위해서 실험결과와 해석결과를 비교한다. 금속 지지체형 고체산화물 연료전지의 평균 전류밀도가 연료극지지체형 고체산화물연료전지에 비해 약 23% 감소한다. 그러나 접합층으로 인해 금속지지체형 고체산화물연료전지가 더 균일한 전류밀도 분포를 가진다.

To overcome the limitations of the conventional Ni anode-supported SOFCs, various types of ceramic anodes have been studied. However, these ceramic anodes are difficult to commercialize because of their low cell performances and difficulty in manufacturing anode-support typed SOFCs. Therefore, in this study, to use these ceramic anodes and take advantage of anode-supported SOFC, which can minimize ohmic loss from the thin electrolyte, we fabricated cathode support-typed SOFC. The cathode-support of LSCF-YSZ was prepared by the acid treatment of conventional Ni-YSZ (Yttria-stabilized Zirconia) anode-support, followed by the infiltration of LSCF to YSZ scaffold. The composite of $La(Sr)Ti(Ni)O_3$ and $Ce(Mn,Fe)O_2$ was used as the ceramic anode. The fabricated cathode-supported button cell showed a relatively low power density of $0.207Wcm^{-2}$ at $850^{\circ}C$; however, it is expected to show better performance through the optimization of the infiltration rate and thickness of LSCF-YSZ cathode-support layer.

The study examined the electrogeneration of hypochlorite ions (ClO^-) via electrolysis of aqueous NaCl solutions using a dimensionally stable anode-type (DSA-type) electrode based on platinum and palladium oxides supported on titanium mesh (Ti/PtPd(10%)O_x). The electrogenerated ClO^- was quantified on the basis of the absorption band at 292 nm (A_λ = 292) of the UV-Vis spectrum. The effect of initial pH, concentration of NaCl, cell potential difference and electrolysis time were investigated in this study. The results showed that the electrolysis of aqueous NaCl solutions increases the solution pH up to high values (≥ 8.0) that favor the formation of ClO^- over chlorine or hypochlorous acid. The hypochlorite concentration increases significantly at pH values > 7.0 and shows a linear trend with increasing NaCl concentration and with increasing cell potential difference. When the cell potential and NaCl concentration are held constant, the maximum hypochlorite value during electrolysis depends on both the cell potential and NaCl concentration. The Ti/PtPd(10%)O_x anode favors the production of hypochlorite ions, making this anode a promising material for use in electrochemical oxidation of wastewater via an indirect mechanism.

음극지지형 고체산화물 연료전지의 전극성분은 연료전지 성능의 주된 감쇄요인으로 지적되고 있는 분극저항을 줄이기 위해 높은 전기전도도와 가스투과도등이 요구되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 SOFC음극의 성능에 영향을 주는 음극의 미세구조, 특히 음극의 기공구조를 다르게 형성시키기 위해 두 가지 서로 다른 과립형성 방법을 이용하여 음극을 제조하고 이에 따라 기판의 기공구조가 어떻게 바뀌는지 또 그로 인해 기판의 미세구조 및 전기전도도가 어떠한 영향을 받는지 관찰하였다 또한 미세구조에 대한 정량적인 화상분석을 통해 기판의 미세구조적인 인자들과 전극특성간의 상관관계를 분석하였다.

Stacks of solid oxide fuel cell with 1kW max power performance were designed on planar type employing anode-supported cells and metallic interconnects. The stacks composed of 3-cells, 8-cells, and 16-cells were fabricated and tested in serials by using anode-supported cells purchased from Indec, and sealants/interconnects prepared at RIST. In the performance test of the final 16-cells stack, OCV was recorded to be 16.7V. The peak power and the power density showed 1 kW, $0.77W/cm^2$ at $820^{\circ}C$, respectively. In addition, the long-term degradation rate of the power exhibited 2.25 % during 500h at $750^{\circ}C$.

There are various types of materials used in electronic industry, such as electrode material, conductor, insulator, anode, cathode and semiconductor. Electrode material type is Cu, Ti, ZnO and so on. Especially if we use mixed ZnO in soil cement or silica gel, we can have advantages in ice road to prevent freezing. We have great impact if we use supported in inorganic substances like silica gel. In this paper we have studied that ZnO supported silica gel and its properties. Zinc acetate dissolved in distilled water were loaded on the silica gel by the reaction with ammonia at $80^{\circ}C$. And we investigated particle structures of ZnO by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD).
