  • Perovskite type ceramic membranes which exhibit dual ion conduction (proton and oxygen ion conduction) can permeate water and can aid solving operational problems such as temperature gradient and carbon deposition associated with a working solid oxide fuel cell. From this point of view, it is crucial to reveal water transport mechanism and especially the nature of the surface sites that is necessary for water incorporation and evolution. $BaCe_{0.8}Y_{0.2}O_{3-{\alpha}}$ (BCY20) was used as a model proton and oxygen ion conducting membrane in this work. Four different catalytically modified membrane configurations were used for the investigations and water flux was measured as a function of temperature. In addition, CO was introduced to the permeate side in order to test the stability of membrane against water and $CO/CO_2$ and post operation analysis of used membranes were carried out. The results revealed that water incorporation occurs on any exposed electrolyte surface. However, the magnitude of water permeation changes depending on which membrane surface is catalytically modified. The platinum increases the water flux on the feed side whilst it decreases the flux on the permeate side. Water flux measurements suggest that platinum can block water permeation on the permeate side by reducing the access to the lattice oxygen in the surface layer.

  • The grain boundary effect on the ionic conductivity was investigated using a.c. admittance analysis in (Bi2O3)0.715(CaO)0.285 oxygen-ion conducting solid electrolyte. As a separated arc representing grain boundary polarization was not observed in the admittance plane, bulk conductivity was measrued for samples with various grain sizes in the temperature range from 48$0^{\circ}C$ to 72$0^{\circ}C$ and the conductivity distribution between grain interior and grain boundary was determined by the reported analytical methods. In the above temperature range, grain boundary worked as a high conductive path instead of blocking layer and ionic conduction through grain boundary was significant. The activation energy for conduction through grain and grain boundary was 78 and 106 kJ/mol, respectively.

  • Pt-Ru and Pt-Ni bimetallic catalysts were prepared and tested for heavy hydrocarbon reforming. Metals were supported on CGO($Ce_{0.8}Gd_{0.2}O_{2.0-x}$) by incipient wetness method. The prepared catalysts were characterized by Temperature programmed reduction(TPR). Oxidative steam reforming of n-dodecane was conducted to compare the activity of the catalysts. The reforming temperature was varied from $500^{\circ}C$ to $800^{\circ}C$ at fixed $O_2$/C of 0.3, $H_2O$/C of 3.0 and GHSV of 5,000/h.Reduction peaks of metal oxide, surface CGO and bulk CGO were detected. Reduction temperature of metal oxide decreased over the bi-metallic catalysts. It is considered that interaction between metals leads to decrease interaction between metal and oxygen. On the other hands, reduction temperatures of surface CGO were dectected in the order of Pt-Ru > Pt-Ni > Pt. low reduction temperatures of surface CGO indicates the low activation energy for oxygen ion conduction to metal. Oxygen ion conduction is known as de-coking mechanism of ionic conducting supports such as CGO. In activity test, fuel conversion was in the same order of Pt-Ru > Pt-Ni > Pt. Especially, 100% of fuel conversion was obtained over Pt-Ru catalysts at $500^{\circ}C$.

  • Phase formation and electrical conduction behavior of Ba-doped LaBaGa $O_4$ layered perovskite were studied. Orthorhombic single phase of $K_2$Ni $F_4$-type structure was observed for the composition range of 0$\leq$x$\leq$0.2 in the La$\_$1+x/Ba$\_$1+x/Ga $O_4$$\_$4-$\delta$/ system by X-ray analysis. In the dry atmosphere, La$\_$0.8/Ba$\_$1.2/Ga$\_$3.9/ exhibited mixed conduction of oxygen ion and hole (p-type) at high p( $O_2$). However, in water vapor containing atmosphere, it showed proton conduction due to the incorporation of water into oxygen vacancies. As the temperature decreased, the contribution of proton conductivity to the total conduction increased and proton conduction was dominant below 350$^{\circ}C$. The activation energy for proton conduction was calculated as 0.72 eV.

  • Phase formation and proton conduction in BaO doped LaSc $O_3$with perovskite structure were studied. L $a_{0.6}$B $a_{0.4}$Sc $O_{2.8}$, viz. 40at% $Ba^{2+}$ ion doped composition, showed a single cubic phase, while the other compositions doped less than 30 at% $Ba^{2+}$ ion showed the cubic phase and the orthorhombic one. Above $650^{\circ}C$ oxygen ion conduction was dominant in $N_2$atmosphere and below this temperature proton conduction was observed in wet atmosphere. All compositions were found to be the pure proton conductors below 30$0^{\circ}C$. The proton conductivity (bulk) of L $a_{0.6}$B $a_{0.4}$Sc $O_{2.8}$ was higher than those of any other composition.osition.ion.

  • $Gd_2O_3-ThO_2$ solid solutions containing 8,10 and 12 mol % $ThO_2$ were synthesized with spectroscopically pure $Gd_2O_3,$ and $ThO_2$ polycrystalline powders. X-ray diffraction revealed that all synthesized specimens have the modified fluorite structure, and the lattice parameter of $Gd_2O_3$ is nearly unchanged with increasing $ThO_2$ mol %. Both ac and dc conductivities were measured in the temperature range $500-1100^{\circ}C$ under $Po_2's$ from $10^{-6}$ to $10^{-1}$ atm. The dc conductivities are nearly independent of $Po_2,$ and agree with the ac values. This implies that the solid solutions are ionic conductors. The conductivity increases with increasing $ThO_2$ mol % with an average activation energy of 1.23 eV. An oxygen interstitial defect and ionic hopping conduction are suggested.

  • The electrical conductivity of highly pure polycrystalline sample of $La_2O_3$ has been measured at temperatures from $600^{\circ}C$ to $1,050^{\circ}C$ and oxygen pressure range of $1{\times}10^{-6}$ torr to $1{\times}10^2$ torr. The defect structure and semiconductor type are investigated by measuring the temperature and oxygen pressure dependences of electrical conductivity. Sintered $La_2O_3$ exhibits the electrical conductivities in the range of $1{\times}10^{-9}\;to\;1{\times}10^{-3}\;ohm^{-1}{\cdot}cm^{-1}$ under the above oxygen pressures. The oxygen pressure dependences on electrical conductivity are characterized by 5.3 at $1,000^{\circ}C$ and 5.7 at $700^{\circ}C$ and more higher values of 9∼14 below $700^{\circ}C$. The increase in n value with decreasing temperature indicates that a simple conduction mechanism does not exist in this material. The conduction carriers are not metal vacancy but oxygen ion at lower pressures. The conduction data indicate a significant ionic conduction at lower temperatures and electronic conduction at higher temperatures.

  • The electrolyte is an important component in determining the performance of Fuel Cells. Especially, investigation of the conduction properties of electrolytes plays a key role in determining the performance of the electrolyte. The electrochemical properties of Yttrium stabilized zirconia (YSZ) were measured to allow the use of this material as an electrolyte for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) in the temperature range of $700-1000^{\circ}C$ and in $0.21{\leq}pO_2/atm{\leq}10^{-23}$. A Hebb-Wagner polarization experimental cell was optimally manufactured; here we discuss typical problems associated with making cells. The partial conductivities due to electrons and holes for 8YSZ, which is known as a superior oxygen conductor, were obtained using I-V characteristics based on the Hebb-Wagner polarization method. Activation energies for holes and electrons are $3.99{\pm}0.17eV$ and $1.70{\pm}0.06eV$ respectively. Further, we calculated the oxygen ion conductivity with electron, hole, and total conductivity, which was obtained by DC four probe conductivity measurements. The oxygen ion conductivity was dependent on the temperature; the activation energy was $0.80{\pm}0.10eV$. The electrolyte domain was determined from the top limit, bottom limit, and boundary (p=n) of the oxygen partial pressure. As a result, the electrolyte domain was widely presented in an extensive range of oxygen partial pressures and temperatures.

  • The electrical conductivities of the yttria (8mol%) stabilizedzirconia-ceria solid solutions were measured as a function of oxygen partial between 80$0^{\circ}C$ and 100$0^{\circ}C$ using 4-probe d.c. method Under pure oxygen atmosphere the oxygen ionic conductivity of CeO2-ZrO2 decreased with the concentration of CeO2 Under reducing condition electronic conduction due to the redox equilibrium of Ce ion was observed. Total ionic and electronic conductivities fitted by a defect model enabled to determine the electronic transference number(tei) which increased with the concentration of CeO2 and with the degree of reduction.
