The Intermediate Temperature SOFC (IT-SOFC) offer several advantages over the High Temperature SOFC (HT-SOFC), which includes better thermal compatibility among components, fast start with lower energy consumption, manufacture and operation cost reduction. The CeO2 based materials are alternatives to the Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) to application in SOFC, as they have higher ionic conductivity and less ohmic losses comparing to YSZ, and they can operate at lower temperatures (500-800?C). Ceria has been doped with a variety of cations, although, the Gd3+ has the ionic radius closest to the ideal one to form solid solution. These electrolytes based in ceria require special electrodes with a higher performance and chemical and termomechanical compatibility. In this work compounds of gadolinia-doped ceria, Ce1-xGdxO2-δ (x = 0,1; 0,2 and 0,3), used as electrolytes, were synthesized by polymeric precursors method, Pechini, as well as the composite material NiO - Ce0,9Gd0,1O1,95, used as anode, also attained by oxide mixture method, mixturing the powders of the both phases calcinated already. The materials were characterized by X ray diffraction, dilatometry and scanning electronic microscopy. The refinement of the diffraction data indicated that all the Ce1-xGdxO2-δ powders were crystallized in a unique cubic phase with fluorite structure, and the composite synthesized by Pechini method produced smaller crystallite size in comparison with the same material attained by oxide mixture method. All the produced powders had nanometric characteristics. The composite produced by Pechini method has microstructural characteristics that can increase the triple phase boundaries (TPB) in the anode, improving the cell efficiency, as well as reducing the mass transport mechanism effect that provokes anode degradation / A utiliza??o direta do g?s natural torna a c?lula a combust?vel de ?xido s?lido (SOFC) potencialmente mais competitiva com as atuais tecnologias para convers?o de energia. A SOFC de temperatura intermedi?ria (IT-SOFC) oferece muitas vantagens sobre a SOFC de alta temperatura (HT-SOFC), que incluem melhor compatibilidade t?rmica entre os componentes, partida r?pida com menos consumo energ?tico, redu??o de custos de obten??o e opera??o. Os materiais baseados em CeO2 s?o alternativas aos eletr?litos de zirc?nia estabilizada com ?tria (YSZ) para aplica??es em SOFC, pois t?m condutividade i?nica maior e menores perdas ?hmicas em compara??o a YSZ, e podem operar a temperaturas mais baixas (500-800?C). C?ria tem sido dopada com uma variedade de c?tions, entretanto, o Gd3+ possui o raio i?nico mais pr?ximo do ideal para forma??o da solu??o s?lida. Esses eletr?litos baseados em c?rio requerem eletrodos especiais com um alto desempenho e compatibilidade termomec?nica e qu?mica. Neste trabalho compostos c?ria dopada com gadol?nia, Ce1-xGdxO2-δ (x = 0,1; 0,2 e 0,3), utilizadas como eletr?litos, foram sintetizados a partir do m?todo dos precursores polim?ricos, Pechini, assim como o material comp?sito NiO - Ce0,9Gd0,1O1,95, usado para anodo, obtido tamb?m pelo m?todo de mistura dos ?xidos, p?s das duas fases j? calcinadas. Os materiais foram caracterizados atrav?s das t?cnicas de difra??o de raios X, dilatometria e microscopia eletr?nica de varredura. O refinamento dos dados obtidos pela difra??o de raios X indicou que todos os p?s de Ce1-xGdxO2-δ cristalizaram em uma ?nica fase c?bica com estrutura fluorita, e que o comp?sito obtido por Pechini produziu menores tamanhos de cristalitos das fases em compara??o com o p? sintetizado por mistura de ?xidos em uma mesma temperatura de calcina??o. Todos os p?s obtidos t?m caracter?sticas nanom?tricas. O comp?sito obtido por Pechini possui caracter?sticas microestruturais que podem aumentar a fronteira de fase tripla (TPB) dentro do anodo, melhorando a efici?ncia da c?lula, assim como reduzir o efeito do mecanismo de transporte de massa que provoca degrada??o do anodo
