الملخص EN

A novel heteropoly acid salt, Na6[Ni(Mo11ZrO39)]·20H2O, has been synthesized by the means of acidification and adding the reactants into the solution step by step.

The heteropoly compound was characterized by elemental analysis, TGA/DSC, infrared spectrum, ultraviolet spectrum, X-ray diffraction, and SEM.

Its protonic conduction was measured by the means of the electrochemical impedance spectrum.

The results showed that it belongs to the Keggin type, and its conductivity value was 1.23 × 10–2 S/cm at 23°C when the relative humidity was 60%, and the conductivity enhanced with the elevated temperature.

Its proton conduction mechanism was in accordance with vehicle mechanism, and the activation energy was 27.82 kJ/mol.
