Feldspar-based CaO–K 2 O–Na 2 O–BaO silicate glass sealant for solid oxide fuel cells
Sealants have been widely used in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), and glass sealants have shown considerable potentials due to their low leakage rate. In this paper, we report a type of feldspar-based glass sealant, mainly composed of CaO-K 2 O-Na 2 O-BaO, with a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of 10.11×10 -6 k -1 , a glass transition temperature at 528°C, and a softening temperature at 573°C. Using this sealant to seal anode-supported SOFCs, the open-circuit voltage (OCV) remains at 1.08V after five thermal cycles and 50-hour aging at 750°C, close to the theoretical OCV value. The SEM and EDS reveal stable interface between the glass sealant and the anode, indicating excellent performance of the CaO-K 2 O-Na 2 O-BaO glass sealant for SOFC sealing applications.

Sol-gel derived silicate-phosphate glass SiO 2 –P 2 O 5 –CaO–TiO 2 : The effect of titanium isopropoxide on porosity and thermomechanical stability
Despite of several decades lasting extensive research of bioactive and bioresorbable glasses the systematic parametrization and determination of the key factors affecting porosity and thermomechanical characteristics still remains challenging. Here, we present silica-phosphate glasses, with the composition 70SiO 2 - 20P 2 O 5 - (10-x)CaO-xTiO 2 (mol%; x = 0, 2.5, 5, and 7.5), prepared by sol -gel method and reinforced by titanium dioxide via titanium isopropoxide (TTIP) incorporation which demonstrated tunable variation of porosity from micro-to macro -region and superb mechanical integrity during the calcination process. The presence of 7.5 mol% TiO 2 promotes dimensional stability up to 1000°C as investigated by thermomechanical analysis. The XRD showed the dominant presence of silicon phosphate [Si(P 2 O 7 )], titanium phosphate [Ti(P 2 O 7 )] and calcium phosphates [β-Ca(P 2 O 6 ) and γ- Ca 2 (P 2 O 7 )]. The effect of TiO 2 doping on the multiscale morphology and porosity was investigated by means of SEM, MIP, μCT, N 2 adsorption and USAXS/SAXS. Increasing TiO 2 content leads to the formation of open porosity up to 70vol% and drives the formation of a refined interconnected macroporosity of 2-30 μm. In contrast, mesoporosity with a dominance of 3-6nm pores decreases in all samples with increasing TiO 2 content. USAXS/SAXS revealed an increase in primary particle size with increasing TiO 2 content which is in good agreement with the nitrogen physisorption analysis showing that microporosity decreases with increasing TiO2 content.
