High production cost is one of the major barriers to widespread commercialization of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Thermal spraytechniques are a low cost alternative for the production of SOFCs. The objective of this work was to evaluate the electrochemicalperformance of cells produced by plasma spraying. The anode was deposited on a porous metallic support by atmospheric plasmaspraying (APS) whereas the electrolyte was deposited by plasma spray-thin film (PS-TF) technique, which can produce thin anddense coatings at high deposition rates. The cathode was deposited by screen-printing and in-operando sintering. The electrochemicaltests were performed at 650–800◦C. Current-voltage characteristics and impedance spectra were measured and analyzed. The impactof electrolyte composition and layer thickness on the gas tightness of the electrolyte and the area specific resistance of the cell isdiscussed. The results show that the applied thermal spraying techniques are a potential alternative for producing SOFCs.
