为在固体氧化物燃料电池中有效利用干甲烷为燃料,需制作多孔立体阳极。采用硬模板法和浸渍法制备Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x包覆管状SDC阳极材料(Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x/SDC),为作对比,用溶胶凝胶法制备粉末状Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x,机械混合SDC粉末制备Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x-SDC。将这两种阳极材料分别制作电解质支撑的单电池Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x/SDC|YSZ|LSMYSZ与Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x-SDC|YSZ|LSM-YSZ,并进行发电性能测试以及长期稳定性实验。结果表明,800℃下,干甲烷环境中,Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x-SDC为阳极的单电池最大功率密度为324.99 m W/cm2,运行10 h后,电压下降5.60%;而以Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x/SDC为阳极的单电池最大功率密度达到384.54 m W/cm2,运行100 h后,电压未严重衰减。实验后阳极的SEM照片表明,Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x-SDC阳极内孔隙狭小,易被积炭堵塞;而Ni_(0.5)Cu_(0.5)Ba_(0.05)O_x/SDC阳极呈立体多孔结构,有利于燃料气体与反应后气体的扩散。催化剂颗粒均匀地包覆在SDC纤维管表面,有利于增加三相界面,提高电池的稳定性。
