Abstract
Disclosed are methods of producing Ni/YSZ porous anode bodies for solid oxide fuel cells. According to the methods, a small amount of a nickel compound or salt is used as a pore former. Upon heating in air, the nickel compound or salt is decomposed into nickel oxide and releases gases, resulting in volume shrinkage. Therefore, Ni/YSZ porous bodies having a uniform pore size and reduction products thereof can be produced in an economical manner.
