Direct Fabrication of Copper Cermet for Use in Solid Oxide Fuel Cell

摘要

The embodiments generally relate to high performance anodes and electrolyte materials for use in solid oxide fuel cells, whereby the anodes are made of a copper-containing cermet material that is sintered at low temperatures. The embodiments further relate to methods of making electrodes and electrolytes at low sintering temperatures. The methods enable the use of catalytic materials in the electrodes that were not previously possible with conventional high sintering temperature techniques.
