Work
is in progress to explore the development of materials with a layered crystallographic
structure (i.e., pyrochlore-perovskite, cubic-perovskite and others), novel
materials such as bismuth aluminates, and composites composed of alkaline
earth carbonates/metal oxide composites.
A database of materials properties will be developed that will include
thermal properties, mechanical properties, electrical properties, flux,
and stability data in the environment of choice over a broad range of
temperatures.
Additional flux testing will be performed on thin asymmetric membranes,
prepared from materials with adequate properties for the desired environment.
