A low silica, barium borate glass-ceramic for use as seals in planar SOFCs

A low silica, barium borate glass-ceramic for use as seals in planar SOFCs containing 64 mol%BaO, 3 mol%Al2O3and 3 mol%SiO2was studied. Coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between 275-550 °C, glass transition temperature (Tg), and dilatometric softening point (Ts) of the parent glass were 11.9 ×...

Description
Summary:A low silica, barium borate glass-ceramic for use as seals in planar SOFCs containing 64 mol%BaO, 3 mol%Al2O3and 3 mol%SiO2was studied. Coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between 275-550 °C, glass transition temperature (Tg), and dilatometric softening point (Ts) of the parent glass were 11.9 × 10-6°C-1, 552 °C, and 558 °C, respectively. Glass-ceramic was produced by devitrification heat treatment at 800 °C for 100 h. It was found that nucleation heat treatment, seeding by 3 wt%ZrO2as glass-composite and pulverization affected the amount, size and distribution of crystalline phases. SEM-EDS and XRD results revealed that crystalline phases presented in the devitrified glass-ceramic were barium aluminate (BaAl2O4), barium aluminosilicate (BaAl2Si2O8) possibly with boron associated in its crystal structure, and barium zirconate (BaZrO3). CTE of the devitrified glass-ceramic was in the range of (10.1-13.0) × 10-6°C-1. Good adhesion was obtained both in the cases of glass and devitrified glass-ceramic with YSZ and AISI430 stainless steel. Interfacial phenomena between these components were discussed. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
