Investigating the microstructural and electrochemical performance of novel La0.3Ba0.7Zr0.5X0.3Y0.2 (X = Gd, Mn, Ce) electrolytes at intermediate temperature SOFCs

La 0.3 Ba 0.7 Zr 0.5 X 0.3 Y 0.2 (X = Gd, Mn, Ce named as LaBaZrGdY, LaBaZrMnY, and LaBaZrCeY, respectively) SOFC electrolytes were prepared via novel organic and chemical auto-combustion methods, via spinach extract and oxalic acid as chelating agents.
