Proton conduction in Mo( vi )-based metallo-supramolecular polymers

High proton conduction (8.5 × 10(-2) mS cm(-1)) was observed in a Mo(vi)-based metallo-supramolecular polymer with carboxylic acids at 95%RH. The integration of OH groups into the polymer was analysed using FTIR spectroscopy and found to be crucial for the proton transport in the polymer.
