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 nanotube requires extra coating and etching processes if it is prepared by traditional producing methods, whose quality greatly depends on the control of processing steps. Therefore, the hollow WO3 nanofibers may be directly manufactured by using the coaxial electrospinning technology to simplify the process. Principle of Coaxial Electrospinning Technology The hollow nanotube is generally obtained by coaxially electrospinning readily soluble or volatile substance and then removing the core layer by dissolving or heating. In general, mineral oil and…

84% yellow tungsten oxide may be used to produce high quality ultrafine tungsten carbide (WC) powder by carbonization method. The producing processes are shown as follows: 1. Mix yellow tungsten oxide (mass fraction of 84%) and carbon (mass fraction of 16%) by mixer, and granulate to particle (grain size of 3mm) by granulator, then dry and mixed material is obtained. 2. Move material to the rotary furnace for continuous reduction/carbonization, the original material changes during the reaction: WO3→WO2.9→WO2.72→WO2.0→W→W2C→WC WO3 was…

Micro fine yellow tungsten oxide’s producing method may be classified into three types including physical method, chemical method (liquid phase method) and comprehensive method in accordance with the reaction characteristics described in the theory of crystal nucleation.
