The oxygen permeation flux of all SSDC-decorated BSCF hollow fiber membranes is higher than that decorated with Sm-doped ceria (SDC, x = 0.0). The BSCF hollow fiber membrane decorated with SSDC with Sr content x = 0.5 exhibits the highest among the series (˜8 mL/cm2min, 950 °C), which can be mainly ascribed to the increase of oxygen vacancies for the surface exchange reaction.Graphical abstract
