Structural and Electrochemical Properties of Dense Yttria-Doped Barium Zirconate Prepared by Solid-State Reactive Sintering
For practical utilization of proton-conducting ceramic fuel cells and electrolyzers, it is essential to lower the sintering temperature and processing time of BaZrO3-based proton conductors.We investigated the effect of sintering temperature and time on the structural and electrochemical properties of dense BaZr0.8Y0.2O3−δ (BZY) prepared
