Problems solved by technology

However, the traditional electrode preparation process requires high-temperature sintering (900-1200°C), which increases the particle size of the LSCF electrode and reduces the reaction surface area of ​​the electrode.
Nanoscale coated electrodes can be prepared by the impregnation method, but the process is relatively complicated and needs to undergo multiple impregnation-pre-firing processes (Tomov RI, Mitchel-Williams T B, Maher R, et al. The synergistic effect of cobalt oxide and Gd- CeO 2 dual infiltration in LSCF / CGO cathodes[J].Journal of Materials Chemistry A, 2018, 6(12): 5071-5081)
Patent CN 108091885A prepares perovskite oxide or fluorite oxide on the cathode by impregnation method. The method used is to first coat the cathode slurry on the electrolyte, perform high-temperature sintering, and then drop the nitrate solution into the cathode. It has the same complex preparation process as the aforementioned impregnation method, and the phenomenon of uneven impregnation concentration gradient
And the patent CN 102420332A in LaNi 0.6 Fe 0.4 o 3-δ Cathode coated with CeO 2 In order to prepare a Cr poisoning-resistant cathode, the method used is to first coat the cathode slurry on the electrolyte, then perform high-temperature sintering, and then infiltrate the cathode in CeO 2 solution, but it was not uniformly stirred during the infiltration process, and LaNi 0.6 Fe 0.4 o 3-δ The electrode has been sintered at high temperature before coating, and it is easy to have large cathode particles and uneven coating.
