Abstract
A solid electrolyte ion transport membrane comprising a matrix material which conducts at least one type of ion such as oxygen ions, and at least one constituent which is physically distinct from the matrix material and which enhances the mechanical properties, the catalytic properties and/or the sintering behavior of the matrix material. The constituent is present in a manner which precludes continuous electronic conductivity through the constituent across the membrane.
