The effect of hydration/dehydration on the AC electrical conductivity of H4PVMo11O40 and some of its cesium salts used as catalysts
Changes in AC electrical conductance G of vanadium substituted 12-molybdophosphoric acid and of its (mono)-acid and neutral cesium salts were studied. Depending on the environment, the electrical conductivity is a combination of protonic and electronic conduction, the protonic one dominating at low temperature.
