Abstract

Unwanted reactions between metallic interconnect and other SOFC components
decrease the efficiency of these energy convertors. One approach to improve interconnect
properties is to apply surface coating. In this study AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel was
coated in a cobalt-base pack mixture by pack cementation. The formation of Mn3O4 and
MnFe2O4 spinels during oxidation at 700ºC improve oxidation resistance and electrical
conductivity. The effect of oxide thickness on the area specific resistance (ASR) was
investigated by applying isothermal oxidation. Results showed that the increase of
isothermal oxidation time, increases the oxide thickness and this increase the ASR.
