Abstract: A sol-gel process for YSZ membrane prepared with less expensive chemicals, ZrOCI2·8H20 and YC13, has been developed. The sol viscosity as a function of concentration, acidity and temperature was brane formation processes were also studied. investigated. And gelation and Based on an optimized procedure memhole and crack-free YSZ membranes with the pore size less than 100 nm have obtained on coarse porous a-alumina.
