The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on La0 1Sr0.9Co0.8Fe0.2O3-delta (LSCF1982) electrode is investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in 550-650 degrees C range under different oxygen partial pressures (pO(2)). The distribution function of relaxation time (DAT) analysis of EIS data enabled us to distinguish 3 individual sub-processes contributing toward the overall electrode polarization during ORR. Based on these results, oxygen chemical diffusivity (D-chem) and surface exchange coefficient (K-sur) values are obtained under open circuit voltage (OCV) conditions by Gerischer impedance model. In 500-650 degrees C range, K-sur values ranges between 10(-5)-10(-8) cm.s(-1) and D-chem, values are in 10(-4)-10(-6) cm(2).s(-1) range which, due to the higher ionic conductivity of LSCF1982, is relatively higher than those for similar mixed-conducting LaxSr1-xCo1-yFeyO3-delta (LSCF). The values of activation overpotential are separated under the fixed current load, which are well-fitted to the Butler-Volmer equation. Under the current load, the variation of exchange current density (i(0)) with pO(2) indicated that at the high temperature the total reaction-rate is determined by charge transfer reaction, but when temperature is decreased the reaction-rate is determined by the gas diffusion reaction.
