A novel approach for substantially improving the sinterability of BaZr0.4Ce0.4Y0.2O3-delta electrolyte for fuel cells by impregnating the green membrane with zinc nitrate as a sintering aid

BaZr0.4Ce0.4Y0.2O3-delta (BZCY4) has been widely considered to be a promising electrolyte material for H+ - SOFC, but it is restricted to commercial applications due to its poor densification behavior. A dense BZCY4 pellet was obtained by sintering at 1250 degree Celcius after impregnating the mater...
