Investigation of the structure and properties of K<Subscript>9</Subscript>H<Subscript>7</Subscript>(SO<Subscript>4</Subscript>)<Subscript>8</Subscript> · H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O single crystals

The features of the conductivity of K₉H₇(SO₄)₈ · H₂O single-crystal samples in the temperature range of superprotonic phase transition have been investigated. The K₉H₇(SO₄)₈ · H₂O crystal structure is determined and refined taking into account hydrogen atoms by X-ray diffraction analysis at a temperature of 295 K: monoclinic symmetry, sp. gr. P2₁/c, Z = 4, a = 7.059(1), b = 19.773(1), c = 23.449(1) Å, β = 95.33(1)°, R ₁/wR ₂ = 2.71/1.71. The structural data obtained suggest that the occurrence of high conductivity in K₉H₇(SO₄)₈ · H₂O crystals with an increase in temperature is related to the diffusion of crystallization water and motion of K ions, as well as to the transformation of the system of hydrogen bonds and protonic motion. The stabilization of the high-temperature superprotonic phase and its supercooling to low temperatures are due to the presence of channels for the motion of K ions and slow backward diffusion of water in the crystal.
