Resumen:
We present a crystallographic, morphologic and redox dynamic study on (60:40) NiO/Ce0.9Gd0.1O1.95 (NiO/GDC) cermets simulating Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (IT-SOFC) anodes in situ conditions. We tested micro- and nanometer sized materials at 700ºC in three different atmospheres (5% H2, 5% O2 and 20% CH4). We used Dispersive X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (DXAS) analysis at the Ce L3-edge and at the Ni K-edge to follow the metal´s oxidation states. A correlation between the catalytic/redox properties and the sample´s characteristics (microstructure, Ni distribution, etc.) was found, indicating that nanometric sized particles showed faster and higher reduction extents than micrometric particles of the same composition.
