| Description | The development of new chemically resistant anodes for protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs) is urgently required to avoid the costly deep hydrogen purification method. $Ba_{0.95}Ca_{0.05}Ce_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{3−}$δ (5CBCY), which is more chemically resistant than $BaCaCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{3}−_{δ}$, was here tested as a component of a composite NiO–5CBCY anode material. A preparation slurry comprising $5CBCY_{,}$ NiO, graphite, and an organic medium was tape cast, sintered and subjected to thermal treatment in 10 vol.% $H_{2}$ in Ar at 700 °C. Differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetry, quadrupole mass spectrometry, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, the AC four-probe method and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used for the investigation. The electrical conductivity of the Ni–5CBCY in $H_{2}$–Ar at 700 °C was 1.1 S/cm. In the same gas atmosphere but with an additional 5 vol.% $CO_{2}$, it was slightly lower, at 0.8 S/cm. The Ni–5CBCY cermet exhibited repeatable electrical conductivity values during Ni-to-NiO oxidation cycles and NiO-to-Ni reduction in the 5CBCY matrix, making it sufficient for preliminary testing in PCFCs. |
