The optimal combination of the LaF_3–CPD composite electrolyte is found to be 1:2 in a molar ratio(LaF_3–CPD-2). LaF_3–CPD-2 composite maintains robust solid state, even at a temperature up to 200 °C, which is 50 °C higher than the melting temperature of CPD. Meanwhile, the considerable proton conductivity of CPD is achieved in the LaF_3–CPD-2 composite electrolyte due to the synergistic effect of the P–OH···F hydrogen bonds and the intrinsic proton conductive property of CPD. Last but not least, the LaF_3–CPD-2 composite manifests excellent conductivity durability at 150 °C and low humidity condition with sizeable proton conductivity of0.0262 S cm^(-1) after 60 h operation, implying that the LaF_3–CPD composite could be a promising candidate for intermediate temperature proton conductors.展开更多
