The polarization characteristics of the cathodes were discussed which were composed YSZ and ${(La_{0.75 }Sr_{0.25 })}_{0.95}Mn_{0.8 }Co_{0.2}O_3$ The three-phase-boundary length increased with the addition of YSN resulting in the minimum po-larization resistance at 60(LSMC) : 40(YSZ) wt% When LSMC-YSZ compoiste cathodes was sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ minimum polarization resistance was observed and the capacitace increased with increasing sintering tem-perature.

The effect of Co dopant on the (La, Sr)MnO3 cathode was investigated. La2Zr2O7 and SrZrO3 were formed as the reaction products between YSZ and LSMC. The reactivity of LSMC with YSZ increased with increasing Co content. However, the cathodic polarization resistance decreased with increasing Co doping. Therefore, doping Co at Mn site in the (La, Sr)MnO3 cathode was effective on controlling the polarization resistance of the cathode. The polarization property of LSMC-YSZ composite(60 wt%: 40 wt%) cathode was better than that of LSMC single cathode.
