METALLIC INTERCONNECTOR MATERIAL FOR SOFC ZMG™232G10

Overview

Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a promising fuel cell with high efficiency operated at high temperatures in the range of about 650 to 900 degrees C.

■Good properties are required for the interconnector (separator) material of SOFC as follows;

(1) good electrical conductivity at operating temperature,
(2) good oxidation resistance at operating temperature for a long time,
(3)coefficient of thermal expansion close to electrolyte material YSZ (zirconia ceramics).

■There are some problem for conventional heat-resistant alloys as follows;

(1) 430SS does not have sufficient oxidation resistance,
(2) austenitic alloys with good oxidation resistance have much higher thermal expansion than YSZ,
(3) Al-containing ferritic alloys with better oxidation resistance than austenitic alloys have low electrical conductivity of oxide layer.

ZMG^™232G10 is a Fe-24%Cr ferritic alloy with a small addition of special elements for SOFC interconnector which is alloy designed and developed to obtain these required properties and lower Cr evaporation at the same time.
