AlCl3-assisted formation of Ni-Al alloy at reduced temperatures: MCFC application

摘要

The Ni-Al Alloy has received much attention as an anode material for high temperature fuel cells due to its high creep resistance and redox stability. However, its high production cost (note that the high temperature and extremely low oxygen partial pressure are required for the conventional synthesis of Ni-Al alloy) has retarded the early commercialization of Ni-Al alloys. Thus, the dramatic reduction in the cost of preparing Ni-Al alloy is imperative for the successful application of Ni-Al alloy to the anode materials.
