Description

A kind of novel intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell bipolar plates and application thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to Solid Oxide Fuel Cell, is a kind of novel intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell bipolar plates and application thereof specifically.
Background technology
Solid Oxide Fuel Cell is a kind of chemical energy to be converted into the Blast Furnace Top Gas Recovery Turbine Unit (TRT) of electric energy, is the new fuel cell technology that twentieth century develops rapidly the eighties.In this device, fuel gas (H 2, CH 4, CO etc.) and oxidant (air, oxygen) but separated by the solid electrolyte film of conduct oxygen ions, solid electrolyte commonly used is yttrium stable zirconium oxide (YSZ).At a certain temperature, the O of cathode side 2-Can pass dielectric film and arrive anode-side and fuel generation oxidation reaction, for charge balance, anode-side then arrives negative electrode by external circuit because of the electronics more than needed that reduction reaction generates, the O of cathode side 2Be reduced to O 2-, in this process, owing in the external circuit passing through of electronics arranged, thus can provide electric energy to the external world.In order to improve the activity of above-mentioned electrochemical reaction, often respectively apply one deck porous catalyst in the both sides of solid electrolyte film, be NiO/ZrO at the anode-side custom catalysts 2Porous ceramic, cathode side are that lattice structure is the La that contains of Ca-Ti ore type, Sr, the oxide of Mn.
In theory, the Open Circuit Potential of a monocell only is about 1 volt, be difficult to satisfy the needs of the daily productive life of people, in order to make it become practical generation technology, must stack up a plurality of monocells is connected into battery pack and externally powers, and this just needs bipolar plates to connect the anode and the negative electrode of adjacent single cells.Bipolar plates is a vitals of fuel cell system, because of its effect of not only playing the fuel gas and the oxygen of separating adjacent monocell, also plays the effect of distribution of gas and conduction current.In general, the bipolar plates as intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell must have following characteristic:

2. air-tightness is good;
3. cheap, easily processing;
4. the thermal coefficient of expansion close with electrode material arranged;
5. good electrical conductivity;
6. all corrosion-resistant in oxidation under higher temperature and the reducing atmosphere.
Because the restriction of above-mentioned condition material, at present, bipolar plate material commonly used has LCC (La 1-xCa xCrO 3) (United States Patent (USP): US006228520B1) with chromium-nickel alloy material (United States Patent (USP): US005733682A), with regard to the LCC material, though its high temperature oxidation resistance is strong, the conductivity height, thermal coefficient of expansion and electrode material are close, but its sintering character is poor, are difficult to the preparation moulding, moreover cost an arm and a leg, the cost of bipolar plates accounts for 80% of battery pack total cost.Comparatively speaking, though the chromium-nickel alloy material can partly overcome the deficiency of LCC material, its long-term stability in use is poor, and the Cr element is at high temperature volatile, and the Cr element deposition that volatilizes poisons anode catalyst at anode surface.
Because bipolar plates is gas partitions plate and gas Flow Field Distribution plate simultaneously, the gas passage of cloth complexity all need be opened in its both sides, its air-tightness and mechanical strength is all had higher requirements, under the condition of existing mechanical process technology and forming technique, the bipolar plates volume that above-mentioned material is done is big, Heavy Weight.The gross thickness of general solid electrolyte film and electrode material is below 1mm, and the thickness of bipolar plates is at 6-10mm, have in addition surpass 10mm; The weight of bipolar plates accounts for more than 95% of whole battery group weight, greatly reduces the Unit Weight power output and the unit volume power output of entire cell.
Moreover for thick and heavy bipolar plates, because its internal stress is difficult to eliminate, yielding in the high temperature use, this brings very big difficulty with regard to the elevated-temperature seal of giving whole battery group.
