Tungsten Oxide Materials Application

Tungsten oxide has good physical and chemical properties, so it can be widely applied in many different fields. Its ultra-fine powder has a strong absorptive capacity of the electromagnetic wave, so it can apply in solar energy field which can be an absorbing material, and in the military field it is an important stealth material. And tungsten oxide has a special catalytic properties in the fuel cell can be used as the anode electrode catalytic materials, as well as can be low-temperature superconducting materials, but also often doped with TiO₂ as a photocatalyst and so on. Tungsten oxide film based on tungsten oxide powder material having a broader application, it can transform it presents color when giving appropriate optical radiation or using electric field. And this is photochromic or electrochromic. And at present these technologies are widely used in electrochromic windows, large information displays, and automotive mirrors and so on. Meanwhile tungsten oxide for NO_X, H₂S, NH and other gases are highly sensitive, so as a sensitive material of the sensor can be used for detection of food, medicines, and other exhaust. Tungsten oxide active apply in different fields, so the study of the tungsten oxide still continue to carry out, and it has also become one of the most potential for development of materials.
