Abstract
The application of an inkjet printing process for fabricating solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathodes was investigated. Stably-dispersed LSCF–GDC inks were prepared by ball milling, and the composition was easily controlled by the preparation process. Fabrication of an LSCF–GDC layer was successfully carried out by depositing dots and the thickness was easily controlled by repeating printing process. A planar SOFC single cell with a double-layered cathode (comprised of a paste painted cathode layer and an inkjet printed interlayer) achieved a maximum power density of 0.71 W/cm2 at 600 °C. This is the preliminary work for fabricating the cathode layer of a SOFC single cell via inkjet printing.
