The spinel structure of manganese cobalt oxide (Mn,Co)3O4 is one of the most promising coatings for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stainless steel interconnects. The stoichiometric Mn1.5Co1.5O4 composition has properties that are preferable to other Mn/Co ratios, for example a higher conductivity and...
