Electrochemical energy conversion devices such as fuel cells (FCs) and water electrolyzers (WE) have attracted attention from the scientific community for their unique ability to store electrical energy in the form of hydrogen and then generate electricity by the reverse process. Unfortunately, those devices rely on a significant amount of …
A starting powder with the nominal composition 0.65Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–0.35PbTiO3 (0.65PMN–0.35PT), which corresponds to the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) composition, was prepared by mechanochemical activation followed by attritor milling and low-temperature calcination at 700°C. It had a narrow particle size distribution with the median particle size equal to 0.3 μm. From the …
