Abstract
Abstract A method of producing a self-supporting air electrode for a solid electrolyte fuel cell, including the steps of mixing lanthanum or a lanthanum compound, manganese or a manganese compound, and metal A or a compound thereof into a mixture, wherein A is selected from the group consisting of Sr, Ca, Mg, Y, Ce, Yb, Zn and Ba and pre-firing the mixture at a temperature of at least 1400° C. to yield a synthesized product of La 1-x A x MnO 3 wherein 0<x ≦0.5 and forming the synthesized product into a green body and firing the green body to form a self-supporting air electrode body consisting of La 1-x A x MnO 3 .

Claim 3
Independent Claim
128 words
A method of producing a self-supporting air electrode for a solid electrolyte fuel cell, comprising the steps of: mixing lanthanum or a lanthanum compound, manganese or a manganese compound, and metal A or a compound thereof into a mixture, wherein A is selected from the group consisting of Sr, Ca, Mg, Y, Ce, Yb, Zn and Ba; forming the mixture into a first green body; pre-firing said first green body at a temperature of at least 1400° C. to yield a synthesized product of La 1-x A x MnO 3 wherein 0<x ≦0.5; pulverizing said synthesized product into a powder; forming said powder into a second green body; firing said second green body to form a self-supporting air electrode consisting of La 1-x A x MnO 3 .
Claim 4
