Surface exchange kinetics of Ruddlesden-Popper (R-P) phase lanthanum nickelates upon Mn doping as an intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs) cathode is investigated for the first time in this communication. To promote the exchange rate in oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on nickelates, Mn is partially substituted for Ni. The oxygen exchange resistance is accurately measured by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) with dense thin layer cathode. It is found that Mn substantially promotes the surface kinetics; a surface exchange coefficient ( k ) of 1.57 × 10 −6 cm/s is obtained at 700 °C for La 1.8 Sr 0.2 Ni 0.9 Mn 0.1 O 4+δ (Sr20Mn10), ∼80% higher than that of the undoped La 2 NiO 4+δ (LNO). To our best knowledge, such coefficient is the highest values among the currently available R-P phase IT-SOFC cathodes. The corresponding polarization resistances ( R p ) are evaluated on porous electrodes. R p for LNO is 0.74 Ωcm 2 at 750 °C, but decreases significantly to 0.42 Ωcm 2 for Sr20Mn10 which is remarkably improved compared to the reported values in the literature for La 2 MO 4+δ materials (M = transition metal). Those promising results demonstrate that Mn-doped LNO is a new excellent cathode material for IT-SOFC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
