Abstract

Heteropoly acids of tungsten and molybdenum, such as tungstosilicic acid and molybdosilicic acid, are produced by first preparing an aqueous solution of an alkali metal tungstate or molybdate and an alkali metal salt of the hetero atom, and then removing the alkali metal cations from the solution by means of a cation exchange membrane under the influence of an applied electrical potential, whereby the reactive tungstate or molybdate and hetero species anions react to form the desired heteropoly acid.
