Porous metal components for high temperature fuel cells which are made by integrating the heretofore employed, separate tape casting and pack cementation processes. Particles of a base metal and a master alloy are suspended in a liquid medium in which a binding agent and a halide activator are dispersed. The suspension is cast into the shape wanted in the component, typically by tape casting; and the cast structure is heated to remove the liquid medium, leaving a flexible, green cast structure commonly referred to as a tape. The green tape is so heated as to: (a) burn out the binder in the tape; (b) form an alloy of the base metal and an alloying metal in the master alloy; and (c) sinter the alloy particles into a porous, coherent metal structure.

The present invention is directed to a method for forming porous oxide dispersion strengthened molten carbonate fuel cell anodes having improved anode creep resistance. The method comprises the steps of forming an alloy powder comprised of a base metal and an alloy metal, forming the alloy into a porous anode structure by sintering, and then placing the porous anode structure under conditions in which the base metal is reduced and the alloy metal is oxidized, thereby internally oxidizing the alloy metal to form oxide particles therein. Alternatively, the method of the present invention can comprise the steps of forming an alloy powder comprised of a base metal and an alloy metal, placing the alloy powder under conditions wherein the powder is oxidized only on its surface, thereby forming oxides of both the base metal and the alloy metal, and forming the oxidized alloy powder into a porous anode structure by simultaneous sintering and internally oxidizing the remaining unoxidized alloy metal by an oxygen exchange reaction between the base metal oxide the internal alloy metal.

A process for manufacture of molten carbonate fuel cell matrices in which an aluminate precursor material and a lithium salt are mixed in an aqueous or organic solvent, resulting in formation of a suspension, the suspension is heated to a temperature less than a boiling of the solvent, resulting in formation of a slurry comprising a lithium aluminate precursor material, at least one casting additive is added to the slurry, the slurry is formed into a desired shape, the desired shape is dried or cured to yield a green molten carbonate fuel cell structure, and the green molten carbonate fuel cell structure is heated after assembly into a molten carbonate fuel cell to the molten carbonate fuel cell operating temperature, resulting in transformation of the lithium aluminate precursor material to lithium aluminate.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for analyzing citationally related content and identifying, based on the analysis, a risk of impliedly overruled content. Embodiments provide for receiving case law data from a document source, for extracting a case triple that includes a first case overruling or abrogating a second case, and a third case citationally related to the second case. Features may be generated from case triple, such as natural processing language features comparing the language in the various cases of the triple, and feeding the generated features to a main classifier. In embodiments, the main classifier classifies the case triple into a class indicating the risk probability that the second case is impliedly overruled by the first case.
