Abstract: | This work investigates the effect of synthesis parameters (calcination temperature, milling conditions and sintering temperature) on the structural, morphological and electrical properties of La0.7Sr0.3Co0.5Fe0.5O3 (LSCF) powders prepared by the solid state reaction. The thermogravimetric profile showed that the minimum temperature needed for the carbonate decomposition and formation of perovskite phase is 800 °C. SEM analysis revealed the loose and porous structure of the powder materials. The XRD patterns demonstrate that milling parameters such as grinding balls:sample ratio, rotational speed, and milling time influence the structural properties. The results revealed that powders synthesized with grinding balls:sample ratio of 8:1, 500 rpm and 4 h of milling present pure LSCF phase. Porosity of the pellets decreased with increasing sintering temperature from 950 to 1100 °C. Electrical conductivity was measured at 400–1000 °C and correlated with sintering temperature. |
