Abstract: | Single phase SrFe1.2Co0.3Ox sample with layered crystal structure was prepared using a solid state reaction method. Electrical conductivity and apparent oxygen diffusion coefficients of the SrFe1.2Co0.3Ox sample were measured as functions of temperature in atmospheres of various oxygen partial pressures
. Total and ionic conductivities were determined by using the conventional four-probe and electron blocking four-probe methods, respectively. The apparent oxygen diffusion coefficient was derived from the time-dependent conductivity relaxation data of the reequilibrium process after abruptly changing the
in the surrounding atmosphere. Several atmospheres of different
were established by the use of premixed gas cylinders. The conductivity of SrFe1.2Co0.3Ox increases with increasing temperature and
. At 900°C in air, the total conductivity and ionic conductivity are 10 and 8 S · cm-2, respectively. The ionic transference number ( 0.8 in air) does not have strong temperature dependence. The activation energy increases with decreasing

at 950°C over a wide range of
