| General description: | Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is the most commonly used as solid electrolyte for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and in oxygen sensors. YSZ exhibits high oxygen-ionic conductivity while blocking electronic conduction. YSZ particles may be synthesized from yttrium nitrate or isopropoxide by sol gel method. YSZ nanoparticles may be prepared in supercritical water (SCW). YSZ nanoparticles of different sizes with varying % mol of yttria may be obtained by CO2 laser based continuous/pulsed laser vaporization method. |
| General description: | Zirconium(IV) oxide-yttria stabilized (YSZ) (nanopowder) is an oxygen ion conductor with properties such as good ionic conductivity and high physiochemical stability. Its other properties include excellent shock resistance, low thermal conductivity and a high coefficient of thermal expansion. |
