In order to identify competitive ion-conducting materials in ceria-carbonates composite electrolytes, M-NLCO (M = Ce0.8Sm0.2O2-δ (SDC), Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-δ (GDC), Ce0.8Y0.2O2-δ (YDC); NLCO = 0.53Li2CO3–0.47Na2CO3) sintered at different temperatures (600° C, 625° C, 650° C, 675° C and 700° C) have been prepared and characterized. It is found that independent of systems, the 675° C-sintered composites in M-NLCO always present the highest conductivities because of the best NLCO distribution and interfacial microstructures. Moreover, among three composites (sintered at 675° C), the total (σtσt) and grain boundary (σgbσgb) conductivities measured at 600° C are ranked as: SDC-NLCO (σt−SDC-NLCO600°C=9.1×10−2Scm−1, σgb−SDC-NLCO600°C=28.1×10−2Scm−1) ﹥ GDC-NLCO (σt−GDC-NLCO600°C=5.8×10−2Scm−1, σgb−GDC-NLCO600°C=18.9×10−2Scm−1) ﹥ YDC-NLCO (σt−YDC-NLCO600°C=3.1×10−2Scm−1, σgb−YDC-NLCO600°C=12.6×10−2Scm−1), which is attributed to ionic-radius compatibility between the dopant and the host as well as the NLCO distribution and interfacial microstructures. It can be concluded that ionic-radius compatibility between the dopant and the host, NLCO distribution and interfacial microstructures have important effects on improving ionic conductivities for ceria-carbonates composite electrolytes.
