Abstract
The influence of partial substitution of Fe with Ti on the oxygen transport properties of La1−x Sr x FeO3 membranes was investigated in view of their application for oxygen separation. Samples of composition \( La_{{0.5}} Sr_{{0.5}} {\text{Fe}}_{{1 - y}} {\text{Ti}}_{y} {\text{O}}_{{3 - \delta }} \) (y=0, 0.2) were prepared and their oxygen transport properties characterised by potential step relaxation and by oxygen permeation measurement in an air/argon gradient. With the first technique, chemical diffusion \({( {\widetilde{D}} )}\)and surface exchange (k S) coefficients were obtained by fitting of the current relaxation data to a single expression valid over the complete time range. The Ti-substituted composition gave slightly larger values of \({\widetilde{D}}\) and k S. The trend was opposite for the measured oxygen permeation flux. In the latter experience, ordering of oxygen vacancies was observed at lower temperature, reducing significantly the performance of the material.
