▎ 摘  要

Composites of 8 mol% Yttria-stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) containing 0, 7, 10 and 14 vol.% of graphene nano-platelets (GNP) were fully densified by Spark Plasma Sintering. The effect of GNP on the electrical performance of the composites was analyzed by impedance spectroscopy as a function of temperature (150-800 degrees C) and oxygen partial pressure (0.21-10(-20) atm). Results show that below GNP percolation threshold (7.1 vol.%), the electrical behavior is dominated by the matrix oxygen-ion conductivity. Above the threshold, the conductivity is predominantly electronic provided by the GNP network. The total conductivity of composites was used as an indicator of GNP stability in different atmospheres. YSZ/GNP composites remain stable in inert conditions up to 600 degrees C, and in reducing conditions up to 800 degrees C, making them good alternatives to perovskite-based materials used for electrochemical applications.
