SrCe 0.95 Tm 0.05 O 3−δ perovskite-type ceramic membranes offer high hydrogen selectivity, thermal stability, mixed protonic−electronic conductivity, and mechanical strength at temperatures above 600 °C. However, in order for the SrCeO 3 -based membranes to be used in industrial applications, the chemical stability of the membranes in various environments must be improved. The effect of doping zirconium on the chemical stability, lattice structure, protonic and electronic conductivity, and hydrogen permeation properties of SrCe 0.95− x Zr x Tm 0.05 O 3−δ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.40) was studied. X-ray diffraction analysis verifies that all samples consist of a single perovskite phase. Doping zirconium in SrCe 0.95 Tm 0.05 O 3−δ results in a decrease in both the protonic and electronic conductivity of the materials under reducing conditions, and a more significant decrease in hydrogen permeability of the membrane in CO 2 free gas streams. In a CO 2 -containing environment SrCe 0.75 Zr 0.20 Tm 0.05 O 3−δ membranes have a larger steady-state H 2 flux and superior chemical stability over SrCe 0.95 Tm 0.05 O 3−δ membranes.
