Abstract
We studied the thermal stability of different hexagonal tungsten trioxide, h-WO3 samples, which were prepared either by annealing hexagonal ammonium tungsten bronze, (NH4)0.33−xWO3−y, or by soft chemical synthesis from Na2WO4. The structure and composition of the samples were studied by powder XRD, SEM-EDX, XPS and 1H-MAS NMR. The thermal properties were investigated by simultaneous TG/DTA, on-line evolved gas analysis (TG/DAT-MS), SEM and in situ powder XRD. The preparative routes influenced the thermal properties of h-WO3 samples, i.e. the course of water release, the exothermic collapse of the hexagonal framework and the phase transformations were all affected.
