Abstract

There has been a growing interest in utilizing La-Sr-Co-Fe-O perovskite-type oxide for efficient high temperature oxygen adsorption applications and oxygen removal process. In this paper, we focus our attention on the analysis of the determinants of the synthesis methods of La 0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O 3-δ (LSCF) powders for the oxygen adsorption/desorption applications. To this aim, LSCF powders were successfully synthesized by different synthesis routes using polymerized complex and citrate methods. The effects of synthesis methods on the structure, particle size, specific surface area, oxygen adsorption/desorption kinetics, and oxygen uptake capacities of LSCF perovskite-type oxides were investigated. The oxygen adsorption/desorption capacities and kinetics of the LSCF oxides increase with increasing (1) the temperature from 700 to 900 °C and (2) the surface area observed at a given temperature. Collectively, the experimental observations suggest that particle sizes may play an important role in oxygen uptake capacities and adsorption/desorption kinetics.
