All the materials are suggested to present mixed ioniceelectronic conductivity (MIEC) from neutron powder diffraction (NPD) experiments, complemented with transport measurements; the presence of a Mo 4þ /Mo 5þ mixed valence at room temperature, combined with a huge metal-like electronic conductivity, as high as 340 S cm À1 at T ¼ 50 C for x ¼ 0.1, could make these oxides good materials for solid-oxide fuel cells. The magnitude of the electronic conductivity decreases with increasing Cr-doping content. The reversibility of the reductioneoxidation between the oxidized Sr(Mo,Cr)O 4Àd scheelite and the reduced Sr(Mo,Cr)O 3 perovskite phases was studied by thermogravimetric analysis, which exhibit the required cyclability for fuel cells. An adequate thermal expansion coefficient, without abrupt changes, and a chemical compatibility with electrolytes make these oxides good candidates for anodes in intermediate-temperature SOFC (IT-SOFCs).
