Summary: High-temperature solid oxide fuel cells (HT-SOFCs) and intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs) operate at different temperature ranges, and transitioning from high to intermediate temperatures can result in issues at the cathode site. One specific issue is the high polarization losses and degradation of LSCF cathode materials due to the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). This review summarizes the occurrence of strontium (Sr) segregation on LSCF cathode surfaces under different operating conditions and its effects on material performance, and also discusses the characterization techniques and mitigation strategies for Sr segregation.

Summary: The in situ exsolved Co-Fe nanoparticles in the (Ba0.9La0.1)(0.95)Co0.7Fe0.2Nb0.1O3-delta (BL95CFN) perovskite oxide significantly improved the electrochemical performance of the anode material in SOFCs. The A-site deficiency promoted the exsolution of Co and Fe, resulting in lower polarization resistance and higher peak density for the anode. The exsolved nanoparticles were uniformly embedded in the oxide matrix, providing a stable anchoring structure for excellent anode coking tolerance.

Summary: In this study, MnFeCr1-x Cox O4 spinel oxides with a conductivity of approximately 0.1 S cm(-1) were used as the fuel electrode of an SOEC. It was found that the MFCC5 and MFCC20 partially decomposed during water electrolysis, forming a metal/oxide interface that enhanced the electrocatalytic performance and durability of the cell. MFCC5 achieved a high current density of 1550 mA cm(-2) at 1.6 V and maintained a current density of about 600 mA cm(-2) after a 150-hour durability test at 1.3 V at 800 °C. This research also demonstrated the feasibility of in situ exsolution of metals from reducible cations in designing spinel-type cathodes for SOECs.

Summary: Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are an efficient and clean device for converting chemical energy into electricity, but the lack of highly catalytic and carbon-tolerant anodes limits their commercial applications. A new strategy is proposed in this study to remove carbon deposition on the anode surface by in-situ formation of alkali metal carbonate. Developments include a multi-phase composite anode and the synthesis of lithium carbonate on the anode surface to enhance catalytic activity and coke removal efficiency.
