Aqueous tape casting and crystallization behavior of gadolinium-doped ceria

Effect of calcination temperature on the crystallite growth of cerium oxide nano-powders prepared by the co-precipitation process

“…4). The extracted activation energies were 17.48 kJ/mol for pH = 8 and 16.0 kJ/mol for pH = 9, which are much lower than the experimental results for nano-size ZrO 2 (34-40 kJ/mol) [33] and gadolinia-doped ceria (105.3 kJ/mol) [34].…”

Cost‐effective suspension formulation for flexible TiB2 tapes

“…11,16,17 Solid oxide fuel cells have made use of tape-cast nickel oxide and yttria-stabilized zirconia-based anode substrates. 18,19 Gradient boron carbide structures 20 have also been achieved. Porous tapes are often used for biological applications and for catalyst supports.…”

“…Tapes can also be cut and stacked to form three‐dimensional parts and can produce uniform orientation of high‐aspect‐ratio particles within the tape, which can then be used in such applications as capacitors, inductors, and sensors 11,16,17 . Solid oxide fuel cells have made use of tape‐cast nickel oxide and yttria‐stabilized zirconia‐based anode substrates 18,19 . Gradient boron carbide structures 20 have also been achieved.…”

Critical analysis of aqueous tape casting, sintering, and characterization of planar Yttria‐Stabilized Zirconia electrolytes for SOFC

“…Tape casting was originally developed based on organic solvents, but due to health, safety, disposal, cost, and environmental issues, researches are focusing on aqueous systems, seeking the benefits of using water as solvent, since it is widely available, nontoxic, nonflammable and cheap . In addition, due to its polarity, water can form longer‐range electrostatic forces between particles than most organic solvents, which can be used to improve dispersion and increase the solid loading in a slurry.…”

“…8 Tape casting was originally developed based on organic solvents, 9 but due to health, safety, disposal, cost, and environmental issues, researches are focusing on aqueous systems, seeking the benefits of using water as solvent, since it is widely available, nontoxic, nonflammable and cheap. [10][11][12] In addition, due to its polarity, water can form longer-range electrostatic forces between particles than most organic solvents, which can be used to improve dispersion and increase the solid loading in a slurry. Nonetheless, aqueous systems present greater sensitivity to processing variables such as restricted choices of binder and plasticizers appropriated for slurry composition, drying conditions and film thickness when compared to organic solvents.…”
