This research is focused on the study of the samples, approximatively 15 9 30 mm2 sized, that were mechanically cut from two sheets (0.4 and 0.2 mm thick, respectively) of AISI 444 Type ferritic stainless steel (FSS) (DIN 1.4521, Eu designation X2CrMoTi18-2); this material was in the 'as-rolled' state. Part of these specimens were...

The investigations performed on state-of-the-art SOFC stacks operated at various electrical load for several thousand hours have underlined the importance to better understand how the sealant materials evolve during the operation period. The opportunity to operate a stack and to have access to post-experiment samples is quite unique and opened...

A commercial ferritic stainless steel (FSS) known as K44M (Type 444, according to ASTM A240, DIN 1.4521 according to NF EN 10088-2) was aged in static air in two differing thick-nesses (i.e. 1.5 and 0.4 mm) at a thermal cycle corresponding to the curing phase of anexperimental glass used as sealing in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stacks, and to...
