Orthorhombic tungsten trioxide nanoflake may be prepared by hydrothermal method. And the influencing factors on the photocatalytic reaction were studied using photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue by the synthesized WO3 as model. And the photocatalytic properties of orthorhombic WO3 nanoflake were studied by determining the chemical oxygen demand (COD) of methine blue before and after photocatalytic degradation by potassium dichromate method. Hydrothermal Method to Prepare Orthorhombic Tungsten Trioxide Nanoflake The chemical reagents used were of analytical grade and were not…

Monoclinic tungsten trioxide nanoflake may be prepared by chemical precipitation method. Chemical Precipitation Method to Prepare Monoclinic Tungsten Trioxide Nanoflake The chemical reagents used are all analytical reagents (AR) and not purified before use. 1. Weigh 3.0g Na2WO3 and 0.005g CTAB (cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide), dissolved in 10mL distilled water. Slowly drop 3mL of this solution into 5mL 3mol•L-1 HCL and stir for 1 ~2h. 2. After centrifugal settling of the reacted solution, wash it repeatedly with distilled water and…

Tungsten trioxide nanoflake has potential application prospects in the treatment of organic dye contaminated water. Why does tungsten trioxide nanoflake have potential application prospects in the treatment of organic dye pollution water? The sewage discharge in China is large, and the sewage treatment rate in urban is only 30%, which means that a large amount of untreated sewage is discharged directly to become a secondary source of pollution to the environment, therefore most of the rivers, lakes and urban groundwater…

Tungsten oxide nanorod may be prepared through a hydrothermal process at 180°C by using sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) as a directing reagent, and may be applied in the photocatalytic degradation of RB under visible light irradiation. Synthesis of Tungsten Trioxide Nanorod 1. Dissolve 2.77g sodium tungstate and 4.77g Na2SO4 in 67.5ml water and stir completely. 2. Adjust the pH to 1.5 with 3mol/L hydrochloric acid (HCL) and stir for 30min. 3. Heat the above solution at 180°C for 48 h. 4.…

Hexagonal tungsten trioxide nanowire may be synthesized by hydrothermal method using Na2WO4•2H2O and HCl as raw materials, K2C2O4 and K2SO4 as structure-directing agents respectively. The hydrothermal reaction was conducted at 150°C for 12h. The structure of hexagonal WO3 nanowire obtained presents complex net structure with higher specific surface area, which improves the photocatalytic activity of the material. The presence of two additives, K2C2O4 and K2SO4, proved that K+ plays an important role in guiding the growth of WO3 nanowire. The…
