NASF/AESF Foundation Research Project #123: Electrochemical Manufacturing for Energy Applications - 7th Quarterly Report
| Products Finishing
The NASF-AESF Foundation Research Board selected a project on electrodeposition toward developing low-cost and scalable manufacturing processes for hydrogen fuel cells and electrolysis cells for clean transportation and distributed power applications. In this period, we followed our work on 3D printing anode support for solid oxide fuel cells, SOFC (or cathode for solid oxide electrolyzers, SOEC) based on our designed optimization outlined in the previous report. We worked on optimizing the printing parameters, obtaining binder burn out and sintering profiles to obtain printed parts with desired geometry and properties.
