摘　　要：Ni-Al2O3 cermet supported tubular solid oxide fuel cells(SOFCs)with different cathodes were fabricated by thermal spraying.The anode,electrolyte and cathode were deposited by atmospheric plasma spraying(APS)aimed at reducing the manufacturing cost of SOFCs.Three porous composite cathodes of lanthanum strontium manganite(LSM)and yttria-stabilized zirconia(YSZ),lanthanum strontium cobalt oxide(LSC)and YSZ,LSC and scandia-stabilized zirconia(ScSZ)were prepared to investigate influence of cathode constitutions on the cell's performance.The electrode polarization can be improved through using a composite cathode.The maximum power density of the cell with APS YSZ electrolyte and LSC/ScSZ composite cathode is increased about 12%than pure LSM cathode.The maximum output power density of the cell with APS ScSZ electrolyte and LSC/ScSZ composite cathode reaches 1.0 W/cm 2 at 1000 o C.The further optimization of the performance of plasma-sprayed composite cathode can be made through improving the interface contact between YSZ electrolyte and composite cathode.Ni-Al2O3 cermet supported tubular solid oxide fuel cells(SOFCs)with different cathodes were fabricated by thermal spraying.The anode,electrolyte and cathode were deposited by atmospheric plasma spraying(APS)aimed at reducing the manufacturing cost of SOFCs.Three porous composite cathodes of lanthanum strontium manganite(LSM)and yttria-stabilized zirconia(YSZ),lanthanum strontium cobalt oxide(LSC)and YSZ,LSC and scandia-stabilized zirconia(ScSZ)were prepared to investigate influence of cathode constitutions on the cell’s performance.The electrode polarization can be improved through using a composite cathode.The maximum power density of the cell with APS YSZ electrolyte and LSC/ScSZ composite cathode is increased about 12%than pure LSM cathode.The maximum output power density of the cell with APS ScSZ electrolyte and LSC/ScSZ composite cathode reaches 1.0 W/cm 2 at 1000 o C.The further optimization of the performance of plasma-sprayed composite cathode can be made through improving the interface contact between YSZ electrolyte and composite cathode.
