Effects of Compound Additives on Properties of Cermet Inert Anodes

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, a combination of a two-step sintering and a particle size gradation technique was used to prepare cermet samples. The effects of compound additives with various combination of SnO2 and BaO on the performance of cermet were investigated. The results showed that, the performance of cermet could be improved by doping compound additives. The density of cermet sample reached to 5.61g•cm-3, and the porosity fell to 2.01%. Furthermore, we did observe a significant enhancement in its conductivity. The sample with 1% BaO additive has the highest conductivity at 8.02S/cm at 960°C, is increased by about 36% compared with the BaO undoped cermets.
