Abstract: Re-oxidation robustness is important to warrant a reliable operation of anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell systems. The current work concentrates on the mechanical properties of re-oxidation stable Y-substituted SrTiO3 ceramic for the use as anode substrate material. Room temperature micro-indentation yielded Young's modulus and hardness of 160 and 7 GPa, respectively, whereas the temperature-dependent modulus was measured with a resonance-based method up to ∼950 °C. The effective Young's modulus as a function of porosity was measured at room temperature and compared with fracture strength data. The fracture toughness was assessed using a combination of pre-indentation cracks and bending test. Creep rates were measured at 800 and 900 °C in a 3-point bending configuration. Post-test fractographic analysis performed using stereo, confocal and scanning electron microscopy, revealed important information on fracture origins and critical defects in the material. A methodology to assess the mechanical properties of porous materials is suggested.
