Cerium Oxide as a Material in Fuel Cells: The Role of Oxygen Storage
The development of efficient and sustainable energy solutions is a global priority. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. supplies Cerium Oxide (CAS 1345-13-7), a material that is gaining significant attention for its potential applications in advanced energy technologies, particularly in fuel cells.
Cerium Oxide's prominence in fuel cell technology is largely attributed to its remarkable oxygen storage capacity (OSC). This property allows the material to reversibly store and release oxygen under varying temperature and atmospheric conditions. In solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), for example, CeO2-based materials (often doped with other elements to enhance performance) act as electrolytes or crucial components in the cathode, facilitating the electrochemical reactions that produce electricity. The use of cerium oxide in fuel cells is a key area of research and development.
The OSC of Cerium Oxide enables it to act as a buffer for oxygen partial pressure, which is critical for maintaining the stability and efficiency of fuel cell operation. As a result, it helps to improve the cell's performance during transient conditions, such as startups and shutdowns, and enhances its longevity. This makes it a highly desirable material for next-generation energy systems. Many research institutions and companies are actively investigating cerium oxide industrial applications in this field.
