Sumario:[EN] (LWO/LSC) composite is one of the most promising mixed ionic electronic conducting materials for hydrogen separation at high temperature. However, these materials present limited catalytic surface activity toward H-2 activation and water splitting, which determines the overall H-2 separation rate. For the implementation of these materials as catalytic membrane reactors, effective catalytic layers have to be developed that are compatible and stable under the reaction conditions. This contribution presents the development of catalytic layers based on sputtered metals (Cu and Pd), electrochemical characterization by impendace spectroscopy, and the study of the H-2 flow obtained by coating them on 60/40-LWO/LSC membranes. Stability of the catalytic layers is also evaluated under H-2 permeation -conditions and CH4-containing atmospheres.
