Metal: Platinum (Pt)
Quantity: 10 grams Solids Loading: No less than 70% Platinum by weight

Typical Use Guidelines:

This is a great inkfor making electrical connections for electrochemical testing of fuel cells,ceramic substrates, electrochemical materials, and metals.
Stirring the ink before use is highly recommended. For best results, the inkshould be stirred with a spatula or a sonic wand to achieve an even consistencyprior to use.
This ink is typically fired at 750C or 850C for 1 hour to ensure adhesionprior to testing at the desired test temperature.
This ink can be used for screen printing for generating electrical connectionsfor wire attachments.

Superior Conductivity and Stability

Engineered for high-performance electrode fabrication, this platinum SOFC ink offers excellent electrical conductivity combined with remarkable chemical stability. Its nano-sized platinum particles are uniformly dispersed in an organic solvent base, ensuring consistent layer formation and optimal performance in fuel cell environments. Users benefit from reliable results across catalyst and electrode manufacturing.

User-Friendly Application Process

Platinum SOFC ink is ready-to-use, simplifying fabrication through screen printing or manual brush techniques. The preparation is hassle-free: simply shake the vial well before use to ensure homogenous distribution. The ink is non-flammable and can be safely handled with basic precautions, provided ingestion and inhalation are avoided. Curing at recommended temperatures guarantees superior adhesion and conductivity.

Optimal Compatibility and Storage

This platinum ink pairs seamlessly with widely used SOFC substrates including YSZ, GDC, and LSCF. For best results, store the tightly sealed vial away from light at ambient temperature to preserve ink quality throughout its 12-month shelf life. Each 10-gram glass vial is designed for convenient handling and minimal waste, supporting consistent performance from lab scale to pilot production.

FAQ's of Platinum SOFC Ink (Pt) - 10 grams:

Q: How should I apply Platinum SOFC Ink for best results?

A: For optimal results, shake the vial thoroughly before use to ensure even particle dispersion. Apply the ink using screen printing or a fine brush, depending on your fabrication method. After application, the ink should be cured at 800-950C, as recommended for SOFC electrode sintering.

Q: What materials is this platinum SOFC ink compatible with?

A: This ink is specifically formulated to be compatible with key SOFC substrate materials such as YSZ, GDC, LSCF, and additional common solid oxide fuel cell supports, supporting versatile use in various research and manufacturing settings.

Q: Where should the Platinum SOFC Ink be stored to maintain its shelf life?

A: The ink should be kept in its tightly sealed glass vial, away from light, at ambient (room) temperature. These storage conditions help maintain the ink's performance and stability for up to 12 months from the manufacturing date.

Q: What are the safety precautions when using this ink?

A: While the ink is non-flammable, it's important to avoid ingestion and inhalation. Handle the product in a well-ventilated area and use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and safety glasses during application.

Q: What is the benefit of using this ink in SOFC applications?

A: This platinum ink provides outstanding electrical conductivity and chemical stability, crucial for efficient electrode fabrication and catalyst layers in SOFCs. Its ultrafine platinum particles and high purity contribute to enhanced device performance and reliability.

Q: Can this ink be used immediately after purchase, or does it require preparation?

A: The ink is supplied in a ready-to-use form, but it is essential to shake the vial well before each use to achieve a homogenous mixture and optimal printing results.
