고온수전해용 전극물질 개발

Development of prepareation technology of materials for high temperature electrolysis

Ni/YSZ ($Y_{2}O_{3}-stabilized$ $ZrO_{2}$), Cu/YSZ and CuO/YSZ composite powder for a cathode material in high temperature electrolysis (HTE) was synthesized by a mechanical alloying method with Ni (or Cu, CuO, Co) and YSZ powder. Microstructure of the composite for HTE reaction has been analyzed with various techniques of XRD, SEM to investigate effects of fabrication conditions. And conductivity of electrode was measured, Cu/YSZ cermet showed the higher electrical conductivity value than Ni/YSZ.
