%0 Journal Article %T SYNTHESIS OF LAxSR1-xTIO3 ANODE MATERIALS BY SOL-GEL AUTO-COMBUSTION METHOD %A CHENG %A JIHAI %J Journal of the Chilean Chemical Society %D 2012 %I Scientific Electronic Library Online %R 10.4067/S0717-97072012000100003 %X a novel anode material for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells with a composite of laxsr1-xtio3 has been synthesized by a sol-gel auto-combustion method. x-ray diffraction (xrd) shows that laxsr1-xtio3 has good chemical compatibility with gd0.2 ce0.8o1.9 electrolyte. the thermal expansion coefficient (tec) of the as-prepared anode material is similar to that of gd0.2 ce0.8o1.9. the electric conductivity measurements show that the conductivity of laxsr1-xtio3 increases with the increasing of lanthanum contents and reached a maximal value at x=0.3. at 800oc, the electrical conductivity of la0.3sr0.7tio3 is 184scm-1. %K fuel cells %K electrode materials %K chemical synthesis %K x-ray diffraction. %U http://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_abstract&pid=S0717-97072012000100003&lng=en&nrm=iso&tlng=en
