TWO-LAYER ANODE FOR MOLTEN CARBONATE FUEL CELLS

Abstract:

An anode includes a first layer and a second layer, such that the first layer includes a first active material selected from a NiAl alloy or mixtures of a NiAl alloy and a NiCr alloy, and the second layer includes a second active material and a ceramic material, the second active material selected from a NiAl alloy, a NiCr alloy, and mixtures thereof. A fuel cell includes the anode such that the first layer is disposed adjacent to an anode current collector and the second layer is disposed adjacent to an electrolyte matrix.
