Dynamic bond exchangeable thermoset vitrimers in 3D-printing

Dynamic bond exchanging vitrimers have emerged recently due to their malleability, self-heal ability, recyclability, and mechanical stability. Likewise, 3D printing is consciously introduced at different platforms for ease of fabrication, high throughput, cost-effectiveness, and waste reduction. These two distinctive techniques have recently made their consensus performance, resulting from a phenomenal change in the printing field. Conventionally, thermoplastic inks have been primarily used in 3D printing, owing to their effortless processability. At the same time, thermosets were utilized for their superior mechanical strength. However, these two essential properties have been required to be presented in the printed material. In that scenario, thermoset vitrimer materials have been introduced in 3D printing, where malleability and mechanical stability have been observed in the same material. Thus, this article details the recent vitrimer material included with the different 3D printing system systems with their reported results to understand and make them widespread. Eventually, the outlook and perspectives could be helpful to understand and enhance this specific field.

Microstructure and Polarization Studies on Interlayer Free La0.65Sr0.3Co0.2Fe0.8O3–δ Cathodes Fabricated on Yttria Stabilized Zirconia by Solution Precursor Plasma Spraying

Nano‐structured cathodes of La_0.65Sr_0.3Co_0.2Fe_0.8O_3–δ (LSCF) are fabricated by solution precursor plasma spraying (SPPS) on yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolytes (LSCF‐SPPS‐YSZ). Phase pure LSCF is obtained at all plasma power. Performances of LSCF‐SPPS‐YSZ cathodes are compared with conventionally prepared LSCF cathodes on YSZ (LSCF‐C‐YSZ) and gadolinium doped ceria (GDC) (LSCF‐C‐GDC) electrolytes. High R_p is observed in the LSCF‐C‐YSZ (∼42 Ohm cm² at 700 °C) followed by LSCF‐C‐GDC (R_p ∼ 1.5 Ohm cm² at 700 °C) cathodes. Performance of the LSCF‐SPPS‐YSZ cathodes (R_p ∼ 0.1 Ohm cm² at 700 °C) is found to be even superior to the performance of LSCF‐C‐GDC cathodes. High performance in LSCF‐SPPS‐YSZ cathodes is attributed to its nano‐structure and absence of any interfacial insulating phase which may be attributed to the low temperature at the interaction point of LSCF and YSZ and low interaction time between LSCF and YSZ during SPPS process. In the time scale of 100 h, no change in the polarization resistances is observed at 750 °C. Based on the literature and from the present studies it can be stated that SOFC with YSZ electrolyte and LSCF‐SPPS‐YSZ cathode can be operated at 750 °C for a longer duration of time and good performance can probably be achieved.
