Abstract
An anode support for a solid oxide fuel cell, the anode support having a bimodal pore distribution comprising a first pore having an average pore size of about 3 micrometers to about 10 micrometers, and a second pore having an average pore size of about 0.1 micrometer to about 1 micrometer.
Claims21
An anode support for a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), the anode support having a bimodal pore distribution comprising
- a first pore having an average pore size of about 3 micrometers to about 10 micrometers, and
- a second pore having an average pore size of about 0.1 micrometer to about 1 micrometer.
A method of manufacturing an anode support for a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), the anode support having a bimodal pore distribution, the method comprising:
- combining a carbonaceous pore former having an average particle size from about 3 micrometers to about 10 micrometers, a matrix material, and nickel oxide to form a composition;
- molding the composition;
- thermally processing the molded composition;
- and
- contacting the thermally processed molded composition with hydrogen to manufacture the anode support.
