Cathode material Sm0.5Sr0.5CoO3 (SSC) with perovskite structure for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell was synthesized using glycine-nitrate process (GNP). The phase evolution and the properties of Sm0.5Sr0.5CoO3 were investigated. The single cell performance was also tested using La0.9Sr0.1Ga0.8Mg0.2O3-delta (LSGM) as electrolyte and SSC as cathode. The results show that the formation of perovskite phase from synthesized precursor obtained by GNP begins at a calcining temperature of 600 degrees C. The single perovskite phase is formed completely after sintering at a temperature of 1000 degrees C. The phase formation temperature for SSC with complete single perovskite phase is from 1000 to 1100 degrees C. The SrSM2O4 phase appeared in the sample sintered at 1200 degrees C. It is also found that the sample sintered at 1200 degrees C has a higher conductivity. The electrical conductivity of sample is higher than 1000 S/cm at all temperature examined from 250 to 850 degrees C, and the highest conductivity reaches 2514S/cm at 250 degrees C. The thermal expansion coefficient of sample SSC is 22.8 x 10(-6) K-1 from 30 to 1000 degrees C in air. The maximum output power density of LSGM electrolyte single cell attains 222 and 293 mW/cm(2) at 800 and 850 degrees C, respectively. (C) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Rui Guo, Dongdong Li, Rui Guan, Dechen Kong, Zheng Cui, Ziqi Zhou, Tianmin He

Summary: BaCeO3-based proton conductors have limitations in practical applications due to low chemical stability and high sintering temperature. In this study, a triple-doping strategy was used to improve the chemical stability and conductivity of BaZr0.1Ce0.7Y0.2O3-delta(BZCY) electrolyte. The triply doped BaCe0.7Sn0.1Dy0.15Cu0.05O3-delta(BCSDCu) exhibited better properties compared to pristine BZCY, including lower sintering temperature and higher proton conductivity. The BCSDCu electrolyte achieved a competitive proton conductivity of 13.6 mS cm-1at 600 degrees C and a high power density of 390 mW cm-2 in an anode-supported single cell.

Engineering heterogeneous synergistic interface and multifunctional cobalt-iron site enabling high-performance oxygen evolution reaction

Ren-Ni Luan, Na Xu, Chao-Ran Li, Zhi-Jie Zhang, Yu-Sheng Zhang, Jun Nan, Shu-Tao Wang, Yong-Ming Chai, Bin Dong

Summary: Extensive research has revealed that oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline conditions involves dynamic surface restructuring. The development and design of sulfide/oxide pre-catalysts can reasonably adjust the composition and structure after surface reconstruction, which is crucial for OER. This study utilized a simple two-step hydrothermal method to achieve in situ S leaching and doping, inducing the composition change and structure reconstruction of CoFe oxides. The transformed FeOOH and CoOOH exhibited excellent OER activity and could be easily mass-produced using low-cost iron based materials and simple methods.

Highly efficiency blue emissive from Bi3+ions in zero-dimensional organic bismuth halide for white LED applications

Jun'an Lai, Daofu Wu, Peng He, Kang An, Yijia Wang, Peng Feng, WeiWei Chen, Zixian Wang, Linfeng Guo, Xiaosheng Tang

Summary: Zero-dimensional organic-inorganic metal halides (OMHs) are gaining attention in the fabrication of light-emitting diodes due to their broad emission band and high photoluminescence quantum yield. This work synthesized a zero-dimensional organic tetraphenylphosphonium bismuth chloride (TBC) that showed efficient blue light emission, with the emission mechanism attributed to the transition of Bi3+ ions. White light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) were fabricated using TBC, along with green-emitting and red-emitting single crystals, achieving single-component white emissions. These findings demonstrate the different emission mechanism of ns2 ions-based OMHs and highlight the potential of bismuth-based OMHs in WLEDs applications.

Study on the wear resistance and mechanism of AlCrCuFe2NiTix high-entropy surfacing alloys

Xuewei Liang, Yunhai Su, Taisen Yang, Zhiyong Dai, Yingdi Wang, Xingping Yong

Summary: The revolutionary design concept of high-entropy alloys has brought new opportunities and challenges to the development of advanced metal materials. In this work, AlCrCuFe2NiTix high-entropy flux cored wires were prepared by combining the design idea of a high-entropy alloy with the characteristics of flux cored wire. AlCr-CuFe2NiTix high-entropy surfacing alloys were prepared using gas metal arc welding technology. The wear properties of the alloys were analyzed, and the phase composition, microstructure, strengthening mechanism, and wear mechanism were discussed. The results show that the alloys exhibit a dendritic microstructure with BCC/B2 + FCC phases. Increasing Ti content leads to the precipitation of Laves phase. The alloys show improved microhardness and wear resistance due to the precipitation of coherent B2 and Laves phases. However, excessive Ti addition results in the increase of Laves phase and reduced wear resistance of the alloys.

Chong Zhang, Yan Liu, Zhaoyan Wang, Hang Yang

Summary: In this study, six bimetallic FeCo particles were synthesized via the hydrothermal method at different Fe:Co ratios. The Fe:Co ratio not only modulates the composition of the particles but also influences their structure and magnetic properties. The FeCo alloys showed a transformation from an Fe-based structure to a Co-based structure with increasing Co content. The Fe:Co ratio of 1:1 and 3:1 resulted in particles with the highest and lowest saturation magnetization, respectively.

Micro-alloying effects of Ta and B on nano-oxides and grain boundaries in 13CrWTi-ODS ferritic alloys

Jianning Zhang, Jing Li, Yiren Wang, Xiaodong Mao, Yong Jiang

Summary: We conducted a study on the formation of ultra-fine Y-Ti-Ta-O nano-oxides in Ta+B micro-alloyed 13CrWTi-ODS alloys using electron microscopy and first-principles calculations. The Y-Ti-Ta-O nano-oxides were found to be mainly Y2(Ti,Ta)2O7, with an average size of 7 nm and a number density of 6.8 x 1023 m-3. Excess boron was found to enhance the adhesion of some low-sigma grain boundaries but weaken the Fe/Y2Ti2O7 interface, while excess tantalum enhanced the Fe/Y2Ti2O7 interface but caused serious degradation of grain boundaries.

Xiufang Qin, Yuanli Ma, Hui Zhang, Ting Zhang, Fang Wang, Xiaohong Xu

Summary: The structure and magnetism of cobalt ferrites after Mn2+-Tb3+ co-doping were studied. Co-doped samples exhibited cubic spinel structure and spherical shape of ferrite nanoparticles. The redistribution of Co2+ and Fe3+ ions between octahedral and tetrahedral sites was observed due to Mn2+-Tb3+ co-doping. The coercivity and magnetization saturation of co-doped samples were significantly improved, leading to a maximum energy product that is 190% higher than that of the un-doped sample.
