Ni-YSZ supported button cells were prepared by spray-coating YSZ and screen-printing YSZ-LSM powder as an electrolyte and oxygen electrode on Ni-YSZ cermet disks. In order to identify the polarization loss mechanism in high temperature electrolysis current-voltage characteristics coupled with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were investigated as a function of temperature, current load, and the humidity. The effects of the different current collectors of platinum and silver for oxygen electrodes were compared. With Ag current collector two polarization losses were distinguished. The high frequency component was attributed to the Ni-YSZ cermet which was less susceptible to temperature variation but increasing in loss with humidity. The lower frequency component was attributed to the LSM electrode. Platinum current collector led to a much lower polarization loss.

본 논문에서는 세그먼트 관형 고체산화물 연료전지(SOFC)의 설계 및 제작과 특성 분석을 다루고 있다. 관형 세라믹 지지체는 압출 공정을 통하여 제작하였으며, NiO-YSZ 연료극과 YSZ 전해질은 담금 코팅법을 통해 세라믹 지지체에 코팅하였다. 코팅된 세라믹 지지체를 $1,350^{\circ}C$에서 5시간 동안 열처리하였으며, $10{\mu}m$ 미만의 치밀하고, 균열이 없는 YSZ 전해질 층을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 열처리된 세라믹 지지체에 LSM-YSZ/LSM/LSCF로 구성된 다층 구조 공기극을 담금법으로 코팅하여 $1,150^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하였다. 세라믹 관형 지지체에 코팅된 세그먼트 SOFC 셀은 Ag-glass 연결재를 사용하여 전기적으로 직렬 연결하였으며, 수소연료 유량과 운전 온도에 따른 세그먼트 SOFC의 성능 변화를 측정하였다.

수소투과금속인 tantalum과 세라믹 지지체로 $Y_2O_3$-stabilized $ZrO_2$ (YSZ)를 이용하여 cermet 수소분리막을 제조하였다. Ta/YSZ cermet 분리막은 헬륨분위기에서의 예비소결과 고진공 하에서의 본소결을 통해 제조하였으며, 소결 및 밀봉 과정에서 발생하는 불순물은 연마를 통해 제거 가능하였다. 이렇게 제조된 분리막은 tantalum의 연속상이 잘 발달된 치밀구조를 보였다. 수소 해리를 위해 팔라듐 코팅을 한 Ta/YSZ 분리막을 이용하여 $200{\sim}350^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 수소투과실험을 수행하였다. $300^{\circ}C$에서 분리막에 균열이 형성되었고 Pd 코팅층은 몇 곳이 박리되었다. XRD 결과는 tantalum이 수소와 반응하여 $Ta_2H$가 생성되는 것을 보여주며, $Ta_2H$에 인한 격자 팽창이 분리막의 결함을 초래하였다.

NiO-coated YSZ powder was prepared using heterogeneous precipitation of Ni hydroxides on YSZ particle surface and high energy milling. The powders were characterized by TG/DTA, XRD, XPS, and SEM. Amorphous Ni precipitate completely decomposed into NiO at $500^{\circ}C$ and the growth of NiO crystallites was constrained by the core particles. Nanocrystalline NiO-coated YSZ core-shell structure powder could be obtained after calcination at $800^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. A core-shell powder compact, due to high sinterability, showed a near theoretical density at $1350^{\circ}C$. After reduction at $900^{\circ}C$, interpenetrating Ni-YSZ microstructure with very uniformly distributed fine Ni and YSZ grains and pores was observed. In contrast, the mechanically mixed oxide sample showed less uniform distribution of pores and larger discontinuous We particles as compared with the core-shell samples.

전자빔 물리기상증착기술(EBPVD)은 주상형 성장거동과 같이 고온에서의 구조 안정성에 기여할 수 있는 특성으로 인해 터빈블레이드 등과 같은 항공기 엔진 고온부품의 열차폐 코팅(TBC) 제조기술로 개발되어 상용화된 기술이다. 전자빔 증착으로 열·기계적 특성이 상용화 가능한 수준에 만족하는 고품질 열차폐 코팅제조를 위해서는 성장거동, 균일두께형성 등과 같은 구조적 요소의 제어가 반드시 수반되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 실품형상에 근사한 터빈 블레이드 mock-up에 대한 기하학적 코팅인자 조건에 따른 7YSZ(7 wt% 이트리아 안정화 지르코니아) 열차폐 코팅의 성장거동과 구조변화를 고찰하였으며, 전산모사 기법을 활용한 기하학적 코팅인자 조건에 따른 코팅성장거동 모델링을 수행하여 실제 코팅결과와 비교하였다.

NiCrAly/YSZ(8wt% Y2O3-Zro2) functionally fraded thermal barrier coating (FGC) layers on a Co-base sureralloy (HAYNESS 188) substrate were fabricated using Ar shielded single torch air plasma spraying method. Functional grading were produced with the stepwise compositional change throughout layer thinkness. Microstructural observation revealed a sucessful fabrication of NiCrAly/YSZ FGC. From the results of the curvature measurement, adhesive stength measurement and thermal shock test for the FGC, it was concluded that the optimum enhance of functionally graded coating layer thinkcess and compositional pattern exit to enhance the properties of FGC, which is closely reated to the internal residual distribution with it.

In this study, we investigated the mechanical behaviors of layered thermal barrier coatings by indentations. Various single and double-layered thermal barrier coatings were deposited by air plasma spray process using different type of commercialized YSZ (Yttria stabilized zirconia) starting powders. Indentation stress-strain curve, load-displacement curve and hardness of the single and the double-layered thermal barrier coatings were obtained experimentally and analyzed. The indentation damages at the same loads were compared, and thus, the results depend on the structure of each coating. The result indicates improvement in damage resistances from tailoring of layered structures in the component of gas turbine system is expected.

A gas turbine blade with thermal barrier ceramic coating is operated at high temperature to increase engine efficiency. Recently, thermal barrier characteristics have been improved by advanced coating technology through microstructure control and increase of adhesion force of the coating layer. More advanced coating materials, rare earth zircon ate ceramics have been studied for replacing YSZ coatings as thermal barrier coatings. In this study, $La_2O_3,\;HfO_2,\;CeO_2,\;Gd_2O_3$ and pure or yttria stabilized zirconia were prepared. Microstructure analysis and the evaluation of mechanical properties such as Hertzian indentation and hardness test were performed.

This study focused on improving the phase stability and mechanical properties of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), commonly utilized in gas turbine engine thermal barrier coatings, by incorporating Gd₂O₃, Er₂O₃, and TiO₂. The addition of 3-valent rare earth elements to YSZ can reduce thermal conductivity and enhance phase stability while adding the 4-valent element TiO₂ can improve phase stability and mechanical properties. Sintered specimens were prepared with hot-press equipment. Phase analysis was conducted with X-ray diffraction (XRD), and mechanical properties were assessed with Vickers hardness equipment. The research results revealed that, except for Z10YGE10T, most compositions predominantly exhibited the t-phase. Increasing the content of 3-valent rare earth oxides resulted in a decrease in the monoclinic phase and an increase in the tetragonal phase. In addition, the t(400) angle decreased while the t(004) angle increased. The addition of 10 mol% of 3-valent rare-earth oxides discarded the t-phase and led to the complete development of the c-phase. Adding 10 mol% TiO₂ increased hardness than YSZ.

Electron beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD) process has currently been applied to thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) for aircraft engines. Due to unique columnar structure, EB-PVD TBCs have advantages in resistances to thermal shock and thermal cycle for their applications, compared to films prepared by plasma spray By the EB-PVD equipment, we successfully obtained yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) layer which has columnar and feather like structure including a large amount of nano size pores and gaps. The EB-PVD technique has been developed for coating functional perovskite type oxides such as (La, Sr)MnO3. Electrode properties have been improved by interface and structural control.
