[0003] Various fuel cells are attracting attention as a key to realizing the next generation clean energy society and solving environmental problems. Various ion conductors are known as materials that can be used in fuel cells and sensors, such as proton conductors of metal oxides and oxide ion conductors.
[0004] As a conventionally known ion conductor, oxide ions (O 2- ) Conductive ceramics include yttria-stabilized zirconia (ZrO2-Y2O3) (hereinafter referred to as "YSZ"). YSZ is known to be used in solid oxide fuel cells (hereinafter referred to as "SOFC"), which have the advantages of particularly high power generation efficiency, no need for a fuel reformer, and excellent long-term stability.
[0005] On the other hand, as a proton conductor, perovskite-type oxides such as BaZr0.8Y0.2O2.9 in which oxygen vacancies are introduced by chemical substitution are known.
[0006] Patent Document 1 discloses a crystalline inorganic compound capable of conducting at least one carrier selected from the group consisting of anions, cations, protons, electrons, and holes. A compound having high electrical conductivity, such as a conductive oxide ion (O 2- ), proton (H + ) compounds that exhibit high ion conductivity such as ions can be used as solid electrolytes for fuel cells, etc.
[0007] The present inventors disclosed in Patent Document 2 a solid electrolyte, an electrolyte layer using the solid electrolyte, and a battery.

[0013] Patent Document 3: International Publication No. 2021 / 085366 Summary of the invention
[0014] Technical problem to be solved by the invention
[0015] Currently, in addition to the above-mentioned conventionally known ion conductors, oxide ion conductors having high oxide ion conductivity and high oxygen mobility and proton conductors having high proton conductivity and high proton mobility are required.
[0016] In addition, an ion conductor having stable properties regardless of the surrounding environment is required. Examples of the surrounding environment include dependence on temperature conditions and oxygen partial pressure.
[0017] Regarding temperature conditions, the existing YSZ requires a high temperature of about 700°C or more to ensure the oxide ion conductivity required by the battery. In order to operate the battery at a high temperature of 700°C or more, the fuel cell itself needs to be preheated before operation, and most of the fuel cell constituent materials require thermal durability. In addition, it is necessary to have an environment and space for operation, and other devices for blocking or cooling that keep the battery at a high temperature while other environments do not become high temperatures. Therefore, an ion conductor that exhibits high ion conductivity under a wide range of temperature conditions is required.
[0018] Here, it is known that proton ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs) using a proton conductor in a solid electrolyte have a certain degree of ion conductivity even at relatively low temperatures because protons as conductive species have high mobility, and have ion conductivity that is independent of oxygen partial pressure.
[0019] In recent years, as a material that exhibits sufficient proton conductivity in the medium temperature range, the use of the aforementioned BaZr0.8Y0.2O2.9, BaZr 1-x Sc x O 3-δ H y Research on barium zirconate.
[0020] However, there is a strong demand for obtaining sufficient proton conductivity in a lower temperature range. However, in order to obtain such characteristics, it is necessary to explore a composition different from barium zirconate.
[0021] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a solid electrolyte capable of exhibiting excellent proton conductivity in low and medium temperature ranges, and an electrolyte layer and a battery using the proton conductive solid electrolyte.

[0420] (Effects of this embodiment)
[0421] The proton conductive solid electrolyte including the compound of the present embodiment has high proton conductivity in a low to medium temperature range.
[0422] As a prior art, it is known to replace Zr oxide of barium zirconate with dopants such as Sc, Y, and lanthanide elements, and attempt to increase the proton concentration by increasing the replacement rate of dopants such as Sc. In addition, in Patent Document 3, proton conductivity is increased by increasing the proportion of Sc and the proportion of protons.
[0423] On the other hand, in the present embodiment, it was found that the proton conductivity can be further improved by using Sc—Mo and an element having an ion radius close to these elements instead of the same crystal structure of Zr—Sc in Patent Document 3.
[0424] The compound of this embodiment has a proton conductivity far higher than that of the conventional proton conductor 20Y:BZ. 1-x M x O 3-δ ,BaCe 1-x Mx O 3-δ (M=mainly Y, Sc, etc.) The compound of this embodiment uses Sr or an element with an ion radius close thereto instead of Zr or Ce, and uses Mo, Ge, etc. as M. In particular, when M=Mo is used, a proton conductivity approximately one order of magnitude higher than that of the prior art can be obtained.
[0425] In particular, the compound of this embodiment has a proton conductivity far higher than that of the conventional proton conductor 20Y:BZ. Specifically, at 175°C, BaSc 0.8 Mo 0.2 O 3-δ The intragranular conductivity of 20Y:BZ is about 10 times that of 20Y:BZ at the same temperature ( Fig.38 ).
[0426] In addition, in 10 -25 In a wide oxygen partial pressure range from about 0 atm to about 0 atm, the total conductivity is almost independent of the oxygen partial pressure, is substantially constant, and has high stability. The compound of this embodiment suggests that proton conduction is dominant.

[0445] (Proton Conducting Properties of the Compounds of the Present Embodiment)
[0446] In this embodiment, it is considered that the compounds having the above conditions of the compounds (A) and (B) have properties as various ion conductors. In particular, it is assumed that when the above compounds are used as proton conductors, effective conductivity can be obtained. Proton conductors refer to compounds that pass protons (hydrogen ions, H + ) to conduct electricity. In addition, the proton conductive solid electrolyte using the compound of this embodiment is preferably used at a temperature of 200 to 1200°C, more preferably at a temperature of 200 to 1000°C, further preferably at 200°C or more and less than 700°C, and particularly preferably at 200 to 600°C. By using it under such temperature conditions, it can stably operate in a wider temperature range than conventional fuel cells, so there are fewer restrictions on the device or configuration required for the operation, and a wide range of applications can be obtained.
[0447] Note that the proton conductive solid electrolyte using the compound of the present embodiment can also operate at a temperature higher than 600° C., which is the operating temperature of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), for example.
[0448] When the proton conductive solid electrolyte of the present embodiment is measured for the proton conductivity in the particle, log[σ(Scm -1 The temperature at which the conductivity represented by )] is greater than -2.0 is preferably 350° C. or less. In addition, the temperature is more preferably 320° C. or less. By making the conductivity below 350° C. sufficiently high, it can be particularly suitable for batteries and other devices that have high conductivity at low temperatures and operate at low temperatures.
[0449] The proton conductive solid electrolyte may be used in the form of a film, layer (sheet or plate) based on a crystal of a powder. Alternatively, it may be used in the form of a powder.

The proton conductive solid electrolyte may also contain compounds other than the above-mentioned compound (A) or (B). For example, other proton conductive compounds may also be contained. However, in the case where the electrolyte is processed into a film-like, layered material or the like, in order to obtain a uniform material, it is preferred that the content ratio of the compound equivalent to compound (A) or (B) is high, or it may be composed only of the compound.
[0451] The proton conductive solid electrolyte of the present embodiment may be composed of a single crystal when in powder form, or may be an aggregate of a plurality of crystal grains. In addition, the aggregate may be a polycrystalline body.

By making the average particle size of the crystal grains within the above range, the resistance caused by grain boundary conduction in the proton conductive solid electrolyte can be suppressed, and the proton conductivity can be further improved. In addition, the average particle size of the crystal grains of the proton conductive solid electrolyte is further preferably 6 to 7 μm. By making the average particle size of the crystal grains within the above range, the increase in resistance caused by grain boundary conduction in the proton conductive solid electrolyte can be suppressed, and the proton conductivity can be further improved.

In this embodiment, as described above, the low-temperature operating battery is a battery that operates at 200 to 1200°C, preferably 200 to 1000°C, more preferably 200 or more and less than 700°C, and particularly preferably 200 to 600°C.
[0458] The battery in this embodiment includes, for example, an anode, a cathode, and the above-mentioned proton conductive solid electrolyte layer interposed therebetween. The cathode and the proton conductive solid electrolyte may form an integrated cathode-proton conductive solid electrolyte layer assembly.
[0459] (Other uses of proton conductive solid electrolytes)
[0460] In the past, proton conductive solid electrolytes containing perovskite structures, deformed perovskite structures, compounds having perovskite-related structures, or hexagonal perovskite-related compounds have shown high ion conductivity and are therefore widely used in batteries, sensors, ion concentrators, membranes for ion separation or permeation, and catalysts, etc. The proton conductive solid electrolyte of the present embodiment can be used in the same manner as these.

In addition, by assembling an electrolytic cell, a capture device or a decomposition device for NOx and / or SOx contained in the exhaust gas can be formed.

[0468] The method for producing a proton conductive solid electrolyte according to the present embodiment produces the compound by a solid phase reaction method.
[0469] The solid phase reaction method can be carried out by a conventionally known process, for example, mixing the starting materials so that the molar ratio of the elements becomes the target chemical composition, pressing and molding into pellets, and calcining to produce a perovskite-type compound or a hexagonal perovskite-related compound.
[0470] First, a starting material containing an element of a target chemical composition is prepared. The starting material may be dried in advance. Drying can be performed at 200 to 1000° C. for 5 to 20 hours using an electric furnace or the like.
[0471] Next, the starting materials are mixed in such a way that the molar ratio of the elements becomes the target chemical composition. The composition of the molar ratio can be based on the molar ratio of the cations. Mixing and grinding can be appropriately performed, for example, using an agate mortar and mixing and grinding by dry mixing and grinding or wet mixing and grinding using ethanol, and repeating for 0.5 to 2 hours.
[0472] The obtained mixture is pressurized into particles. The molding can be performed by pressurizing the mixture after pre-calcining. The pre-calcination can be performed at 300 to 1100° C. for 5 to 24 hours using an electric furnace or the like. After pre-calcination, the mixture can be crushed again and the above-mentioned mixed grinding can be performed. The mixture is formed into particles at 62 to 150 MPa.
[0473] The molded particles are calcined (sintered) at 1400 to 1700° C. for 3 to 24 hours in the atmosphere, more preferably at 1450 to 1600° C. for 8 to 13 hours.

[0545] It should be noted that in Fig.37 In the figure, the dotted line represents the Norby gap and the dashed line represents the proton conductivity of 0.01 S / cm.

[0547] As the existing material, the highest performance proton conductor is 60Sc:BZ or BaZr. 0.4 Sc 0.6 O 3-δ , Test Example 1 shows a higher proton conductivity than that. In addition, especially for the currently used material close to practical application, 20Y:BZ, namely BaZr 0.8 Y 0.2 O 3-δ , the proton conductivity of Test Example 1 is about 10 times higher. That is, Test Example 1 can be said to be a promising new substance.
[0548] In addition, the proton conductivity required for practical use is usually 0.01 Scm -1 (log[σ(Scm -1 )] = -2.0). In the prior art proton conductor, the proton conductivity cannot reach 0.01 Scm unless it is at a high temperature. -1 , 20Y:BZ reached at 534℃, 60Sc:BZ reached at 396℃. On the other hand, Fig.37 , 38 It is found that the compound of Test Example 1 reaches the proton conductivity required for practical use at 320° C. That is, the compound shows a proton conductivity required for practical use at a temperature 214° C. lower than that of the material 20Y:BZ currently in practical use.
[0549] In addition, the technical issues required for practical application are Fig.37 , 38The dashed V-shaped line in the graph indicates that the curve should reach a point above the Norby Gap. Among existing materials, 60Sc:BZ only reaches this point in a narrow temperature range of about 280°C. In contrast, the compound of Test Example 1 reaches the Norby Gap in a wide temperature range of about 250 to 400°C, and is expected to have high practicality.
[0550] (Oxygen partial pressure dependence of total conductivity)
[0551] The oxygen partial pressure dependence of the total conductivity was measured by the direct current four-terminal method. The sample was prepared in the same manner as the total conductivity measurement described above, and the oxygen partial pressure was controlled using oxygen, nitrogen, or nitrogen-hydrogen mixed gas. The oxygen partial pressure was monitored using an oxygen sensor located downstream of the device.
[0552] Fig.39 The time dependence of the conductivity when switching from light water (H2O) to heavy water (D2O) and then to humid air of light water (H2O) is shown, i.e., a curve diagram of the relaxation process, for Experimental Example 1. As can be seen from the figure, when switching to the D2O atmosphere, the total conductivity decreases, and the ratio of the conductivity in the H2O air to that in the D2O air is 1.33, which is close to the ideal value of 1.41 in the classical theory of proton conduction, so it can be seen that proton conduction is dominant.
[0553] Fig.40 A graph showing the oxygen partial pressure dependence of dry atmosphere and humid atmosphere at 300° C. for Test Example 1. The total conductivity in the humid atmosphere is 10 times higher than that in the dry atmosphere, and the total conductivity is almost independent of the oxygen partial pressure, indicating that protons are the dominant conductive species.
[0554] Fig.41 A graph showing another Arrhenius curve of the electrical conductivity of each gas atmosphere with respect to Experimental Example 1 is shown.
[0555] The total conductivity in dry air is a roughly linear straight line, but in a humid atmosphere, it shows a nonlinear total conductivity. The total conductivity in light water H2O air is higher than that in dry air, especially 40 times higher at 300°C. This result strongly suggests proton conduction. In addition, the conductivity in light water H2O air is 1.1 to 1.6 times higher than that in heavy water D2O air, which also strongly suggests that proton conduction is dominant.
[0556] (Body conductivity evaluation)
[0557] The bulk conductivity was determined by the AC impedance method. The atmosphere was controlled using air, nitrogen, or nitrogen-hydrogen mixed gas. The oxygen partial pressure was monitored using an oxygen sensor installed downstream of the device.
[0558] Fig.42 The graph shows the oxygen partial pressure dependence of the bulk conductivity of Test Example 1. The graph shows the oxygen partial pressure dependence of the bulk conductivity at 310°C and 147°C in a humid atmosphere. It is found that the bulk conductivity does not depend on the oxygen partial pressure, and the chemical stability and electrical stability are high on the oxidation side and the reduction side.
[0559] (Thermogravimetric analysis)
[0560] The proton concentration was measured using a thermogravimetric analyzer (manufactured by NETZSCH, product name: STA449F3 Jupiter).

X-ray diffraction data was collected for the powder sample after annealing, and the chemical stability was evaluated.
