Defects and transport in SrFe1−xCoxO3−δ
Tóm tắt
The non-stoichiometry and chemical diffusion coefficient of SrFe1−xCoxO3-δ have been measured by steady state and transient thermogravimetry in the temperature range 750–1200 °C at different oxygen partial pressures. At high oxygen partial pressures, the chemical diffusion coefficient was in the range 1·10−4 – 7·10−4 cm2/s. This, combined with high concentration of disordered vacancies make these materials perhaps the fastest solid oxygen ion diffusers known at high temperatures and high oxygen partial pressures. However, due to the high concentration of defects in SrFe1−xCoxO3-δ the compound transforms from a cubic (disordered) perovskite to a brownmillerite type of structure under reduced oxygen partial pressures below approx. 900 °C. Due to this phase transition, the mobility of oxygen vacancies in SrFe1−xCoxO3-δ decreases up to about an order of magnitude at 850 °C. We also observe an ordering effect at 1000 °C, although smaller in size, and this is suggested to be due to short range ordering of four-coordinated polyhedra of Fe. For possible use as oxygen separation membranes, phase stability against sulphur and carbon containing atmospheres is also discussed with respect to the formation of carbonates and sulphates.
