  title = {Oxidation of porous stainless steel supports for metal-supported solid oxide fuel cells},
  abstract = {<p><span>Oxidation behavior of porous P434L ferritic stainless steel, used for the fabrication of metal-supported solid oxide fuel cells (MS-SOFC), is studied under anodic and cathodic atmospheres. Temperature- and atmosphere-dependence is determined for as-sintered and pre-oxidized stainless steel. Pre-oxidation reduced the long-term oxidation rate. For pre-oxidized samples, the oxidation rate in air exceeds that in humid hydrogen for temperatures above 700&nbsp;°C. The influence of PrOx, LSCF-SDC, and Ni-SDC coatings is also examined. The coatings do not dramatically impact oxide scale growth. Oxidation in C-free and C-containing anodic atmospheres is similar. Addition of CO</span><span>2</span><span>, CH</span><span>4</span><span>, and CO to humidified hydrogen to simulate ethanol reformate does not significantly impact oxidation behavior. Cr transpiration in humid air is greatly reduced by the PrOx coating, and a PrCrO</span><span>3</span><span>&nbsp;reaction product is observed throughout the porous structure. A dense and protective chromia-based scale forms on steel samples during oxidation in all conditions. A thin silica enriched oxide layer also forms at the metal-scale interface. In general, the oxidation behavior at 700&nbsp;°C is found to be acceptable.</span></p>},
