Grant Description: NOTE: Please read the Master Funding OpportunityAnnouncement (attached below)for complete details on evaluation criteria and application preparationinstructions.SUB-AREA OF INTEREST 3A: Electrodes ? Infiltration of Active Elements intoSOFC Electrode StructuresApplications are requested to develop materials and processing techniquesforthe infiltration and/or injection of active elements into SOFC electrodestructures. Applicants are encouraged to identify component materialcombinations that, when viewed as a materials system, optimize electricalperformance and thermal, mechanical and chemical stability. Materialsshouldbe able to operate at a temperature of 650 degrees C to 800 degrees C andshould be able towithstand hundreds of thermal cycles over the 40,000 hour stack lifetimeforstationary.Lifetime effects must be addressed and characterized to the greatest extentpossible. These effects include:?Phase and elemental composition stability.?Thermal expansion compatibility.?Prevention of structural defects.?Stable conductivity and chemical activity.Cost, manufacturability and reliability are all critical factors in meetingtheSECA Program goals.
