Abstract
The high-temperature corrosion behavior of anode current collectors in liquid Ag under an oxidizing atmosphere was investigated. The weight gain in oxygen was higher than that of liquid Ag because of the effective barrier formed by Ag-rich layer coated on the corrosion layer. The thickness of the corrosion layer under oxygen was approximately twice that of the layer developed under liquid Ag because of the effective barrier originating from the Ag-rich layer. The corrosion products on the surface of the specimens in both oxygen and liquid Ag were Al2O3 and FeAl2O4 from 24 to 168 h. The surface morphology that was developed on the scale of the corroded layer represented a buckle structure in liquid Ag and a convoluted structure in oxygen, which resulted from the lateral growth of the oxide. This study proved the improved stability and cost-effectiveness of using FeCrAl alloy as a current collector in a solid oxide membrane system.
