Abstract
The polarization dependences of a porous gold electrode in contact with a solid electrolyte of the composition La0.88Sr0.12Ga0.82Mg0.18O2.85 are studied at 600–800°C and oxygen pressures of 2 × 10−2-1 atm. It is shown that the rate of cathodic reduction of oxygen out of the gas phase depends on the preliminary treatment of the sample. The activation energy is equal to 110–135 kJ mol−1 at a low polarization. After increasing the polarization, the activation energy for the cathodic reduction of oxygen equals 75–85 kJ mol−1 and depends on the oxygen pressure as a power function with a power index of 1/4. The rate of the anodic evolution of oxygen is dependent neither on the preliminary treatment of the sample nor on the oxygen pressure in the gas phase and the polarization curve has a characteristic segment, which corresponds to a limiting overvoltage.
