Abstract: Ba_xCe_(0.8)Pr_(0.2)O_(3-α)(X=0.98-1.03) ceramics were prepared by high temperature solid-state reaction. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that the materials were perovskite-type orthorhombic single phase. By using gas concentration cell and AC impedance spectroscopy methods, the electrical conduction behavior of the materials was investigated in different gases at 500-900 ℃. The influence of non-stoichiometry in the materials with x≠1 on conduction properties was studied and compared with that in the material with x=1. The results indicated that Ba_(1.03)Ce_(0.8)Pr_(0.2)O_(3-α) was a pure protonic conductor, and Ba_(0.98)Ce_(0.8)Pr_(0.2)O_(3-α) was a mixed conductor of protons and electrons in wet hydrogen at 500-900 ℃. BaCe_(0.8)Pr_(0.2)O_(3-α) was a pure protonic conductor in 500-600 ℃, and a mixed conductor of protons and electrons above 600℃ in wet hydrogen. In 500-900℃, they were all mixed conductors of oxide ions and electronic holes in dry air, and mixed con-ductors of protons, oxide ions and electronic holes in wet air. Both the protonic and oxide ionic conductivities increased with increasing bar-ium content in the materials in wet hydrogen, dry air and wet air, respectively.
