Hexagonal tungsten trioxide has prospect application in cathode material and chargeable lithium ion battery.
Hexagonal WO3 is metastable state phase. Its producing method is mild. It can be made by hydrothermal method, using sodium tungstate and hydrochloric acid as raw material, and then adding like potassium oxalate and potassium sulphate as additives.
How about hexagonal tungsten oxide structure?
Hexagonal WO3 is focused due to its special hexagonal path, many metal ion can insert to this path which forms into hexagonal tungsten bronze.
Hexagonal WO3 has stratified structure. Fixed point of octahedron is joined to form as hexatomic ring. It can become one dimensional hexagonal path. Besides that, the nearest hexatomic ring forms as triangle which will also become one dimensional triangle path.
In addition, studies have shown that nano hexagonal tungsten trioxide material can apply as photocatalyst to degrade organic material.
