A favorable cathode performance can be expected with La 4 Co 3 O 10, due to the similarity to the representative cathode material of LaCoO 3. However, its narrow stable oxygen partial pressure (p O2) range has made it difficult to synthesize and sinter La 4 Co 3 O 10, and its electrical and ionic properties has not yet been studied enough. In this study, the dense body of La 4 Co 3 O 10 was prepared by controlling p O2 during sintering within its stable range utilizing the equilibrium between Fe 2 O 3 and Fe 3 O 4. The electrical conductivity of La 4 Co 3 O 10 is comparable to those of perovskite-type cathode materials such as LSCF. And its oxygen nonstoichiometry is hyperstoichiometric. Additionally, it was revealed that in air La 4 Co 3 O 10 partially decomposes to LaCoO 3 and La 2 O 3 in 100 h at 800 C or higher, while no decomposition product was detected by X-ray diffraction at 700 C or lower.
